Features of the Continental GP5000 Tyre

• Black Chili Compound

• Active Comfort Technology

• Lazer Grip

• Vectran™ Breaker

Black Chili Compound
The rolling properties of the Black Chili rubber compound balance grip, rolling resistance, and mileage. Using advanced synthetic and natural rubbers mixed with optimised soot particles, this compound provides maximum grip without sacrificing speed or durability.

Vectran™ Breaker
Vectran™ is spun from liquid crystal polymer to produce a thermoplastic, multi-thread yarn. This fabric is more cut-resistant than aramide and five times stronger than steel, offering superior protection against punctures without compromising rolling efficiency.

Lazer Grip
The lazered micro-profile expands over the tyre shoulder to improve cornering precision and feel, giving riders better control on curves and fast turns.

Active Comfort Technology
Embedded in the tyre construction, Active Comfort absorbs vibrations from the road, smoothing out your ride and improving comfort over long distances.

The Continental GP5000 Tyre combines these advanced technologies to deliver a race-level ride for both competitive and recreational cyclists.
