Grand Prix 5000: made the best tire even better. Now the new flagship in road models!

Wider tires allow for better grip in poor weather conditions, improve puncture protection, and enhance riding comfort.

In training or races. In rain or sunshine, cold or heat. To break your new record or just for the fun of it.

Unparalleled Vectran Breaker, low rolling resistance, and excellent grip provided by the BlackChili compound, and of course German craftsmanship!

Black Chili
A premium rubber compound developed by Continental, compared to conventional rubber compounds:

• Reduces rolling resistance
• Increases grip
• Enhances durability

Active Comfort Technology
The built-in and revolutionary Active Comfort technology effectively dampens vibrations and softens the ride feel.

Lazer Grip Technology
With Lazer Grip technology, you are virtually one with the road. The Lazer Grip micro-profile offers unparalleled grip and reliability in cornering.

Vectran
Vectran is a puncture protection developed and patented by Continental, which:

• Is lighter and more flexible while providing more effective protection compared to equivalent nylon puncture protection.
• Does not compromise rolling resistance.
• Is a high-tech synthetic fiber modeled after natural patterns.
• Is a liquid crystal polymer (LCP), like a spider's silk.
• Is spun from melted Vectra liquid polymer and further processed into a multi-strand thread.

Like a spider's silk, Vectran has excellent tear resistance while being lightweight. These very attributes make it an outstanding material for use in top-tier puncture protection in Continental tires.
