Black Chili
Continental's top rubber compound, which compared to regular compounds:
- Reduces rolling resistance
- Increases grip
- Enhances durability
Active Comfort Technology
Revolutionary Active Comfort technology is embedded to effectively absorb vibrations and smooth the ride.
Lazer Grip Technology
With Lazer Grip technology, you feel as one with the road. The Lazer Grip micro profile offers unique grip and reliability in cornering.
Vectran
Vectran is a puncture protection developed and patented by Continental, which:
- Is lighter, more flexible, and provides better protection than comparable nylon puncture protection.
- Does not compromise the tire's rolling resistance.
- Is a high-tech fiber synthetically manufactured, based on a natural model.
- Is a liquid crystal polymer (LCP), like spider silk.
- Is spun from melted Vectra liquid polymer and processed into a multifilament yarn.
Like spider silk, Vectran offers excellent tear resistance while being lightweight. These are precisely the characteristics that make it an excellent material for high-performance puncture protection in Continental tires.
