Made in Germany, the RaceSport and ProTection models use the BlackChili compound combining protection and speed.
Despite its rugged tread pattern, the Cross King rolls quickly and smoothly. The ProTection model features special puncture protection, designed for heavy use, while the lighter RaceSport version is more suitable for off-road and marathon tracks.
BlackChili is a top-tier rubber compound by Continental, offering 26% less rolling resistance and 30% more grip than standard compounds, and improving wear resistance by 5%!
Thanks to ProTection technology, these tires provide a perfect combination of smooth rolling, grip, and puncture resistance. This is achieved with an extra puncture protection layer, making the tire highly durable and protected against damage. Despite the extra layer, the tire offers excellent damping effects and performs well in challenging terrains.
ProTection models are also compatible with Tubeless rims.
