Description

Description

The Continental Race King II Performance MTB tyres are fast due to its low tyre profile. They are best used on dry unpaved surfaces. The Continental Race King II Performance tyres have very low rolling resistance and are good to use on fast tracks. This applies to both cycling on the roads as well as in the woods. At low tyre pressure you can even go a long way when the roads are wet.

Technology

PureGrip Compound
Based on active silica compound, a material was sought for the Performance segment. After extensive research, our R&D department came up with a new compound with excellent grip and life span properties. This new rubber with the name "PureGrip" follows directly on the BlackChili Compound and is used on racing and mountain bikes in the Performance class. This tyre with a lot of grip and a long life span is exclusively made in the Continental factory in Hefei (Asia).
