Description
The Continental Top Contact Winter II tire is designed for serious winter cyclists. Its tread features a grip pattern that extends into the shoulder area, providing enhanced traction on tarmac, gravel, or snow. The tire incorporates hundreds of lamellae, creating numerous biting edges that improve grip on various surfaces.
This 700 x 42 clincher tire has a wire bead and is rated E50 for e-bike use, offering a durable structure with puncture protection to withstand the additional force from electric bikes. The Vectran Breaker layer, made from a liquid crystal-polymer yarn, provides superior cut resistance and strength while remaining lightweight and flexible, without increasing rolling resistance.
The tire compound performs well in cold temperatures, maintaining traction when conditions are challenging. A reflective sidewall stripe adds visibility in low-light conditions. With a 330 TPI construction and a maximum pressure of 58 PSI, the tire weighs 680 grams and is suitable for touring, hybrid, winter-studded, and road cycling.
