The Continental Grand Prix tyre is ingrained in cycle racing history.
In the late eighties, it heralded the triumphant entry of the modern racing bike 'clincher' and is today a synonym for quality and performance. This latest incarnation shines thanks to a PolyX Breaker layer in the casing and a BlackChili Compound with an impressive combination of puncture protection, easy running, durability and grip.
The modern profile design and the TWI (wear indicator) round off the performance. "Handmade in Germany" as folding and wired tires in the classic racing dimension 23-622 and many other sizes.

BlackChili Compound
- This unique tread rubber mixture which is only produced in our German factory has revolutionised bicycle tyres.
- BlackChili Compound improves rolling resistance by 26 % and provides 30 % more grip than activated silica compounds.
- Premium tyres with BlackChili Compound also impress with higher mileage and unlike many multi-compounds, provide a constant ride from the first to the last kilometre.
PolyX Breaker®
With our PolyX Breaker®, we bring our car expertise to the bicycle tyre segment: Polyester has been used successfully for years in car tyres and been tried and tested many times. The extremely resistant polyester fibre is woven tightly crosswise. In this way, a very high fabric density is reached which not only makes the Breaker more resistant to foreign objects but is also especially resistant to punctures. The rolling resistance is also not negatively affected by the PolyX Breaker®.
