Description
The Continental Grand Prix 5000 tire is designed for road cycling, featuring a 650b x 25 size with a folding bead and clincher type. It offers a balance of speed, comfort, and puncture protection. The tire incorporates Vectran Breaker, a multiple-thread thermoplastic yarn that is lighter and more flexible than nylon, providing superior cut resistance without compromising rolling resistance. LazerGrip technology extends a laser-etched micro profile over the tire’s shoulder for improved cornering grip. Active Comfort Technology (ACT) is built into the tire to absorb vibrations and smooth the ride. The Black Chili Compound combines synthetic and natural rubbers to optimize grip and rolling performance. This tire has 330 TPI, weighs 210 grams, and supports a maximum pressure of 123 PSI.
