Black Chili
A top tire compound developed by Continental, compared to regular compounds:
- Reduces rolling resistance
- Increases grip
- Enhances durability
- Active Comfort Technology
- The built-in revolutionary Active Comfort technology effectively reduces vibration and smoothens the ride feel.
Lazer Grip Technology
With Lazer Grip technology, you feel one with the road. The Lazer Grip micro profile provides unique grip and reliability when cornering.
Vectran
Vectran is a puncture protection developed and patented by Continental, which:
- Is lighter and more flexible while offering better protection than equivalent nylon puncture protection.
- Does not compromise the tire's rolling resistance.
- Is a high-tech synthetic fiber based on a natural model.
- Is a liquid crystal polymer (LCP), similar to spider silk.
- Spun from melted Vectra liquid polymer and further processed into multi-filament yarn. Like spider silk, Vectran resists tearing very well while being lightweight. These properties make it an excellent material for use in high-performance puncture protection in Continental tires.
