Continental Grand Prix 4000 (Chili Compound)

Features: • The new tread:- With the new Black Chili Compound rolling resistance is reduced by 26%, grip is increased by 30% and mileage is increased by 5%. • Features new tread wear indicators to help riders gauge the life of their GP4000 tyre. • You don't lose mileage performance by prematurely replacing the tyre. • You don't risk safety by using the tyre beyond its tread service life. • Vectran anti-puncture technology, tougher than aramid. • Weight: 205gms. Black Chili Compund is the name for our new compound for road & MTB race tyres. Using carbon nano particles, we are able to make a softer compound on any given tyre without sacrificing the wear rate of the tread. Each particle of the filler agent (carbon) is only 1/10th of the size of standard carbon black particles. To give you an idea of their size, our Black Chili particles are the same size in relation to a soccer ball, as the soccer ball would be to the earth. What this means is that the tyre has more points of contact with the road/trail surface for improved grip, and they are also more closely bound with each other ensuring that premature wear of the tyre tread is avoided. We can then make a compound softer, without losing any wear capabilities. In tests conducted at our R&D facility, tyres containing Black Chili are also rolling faster than conventional tyres making them an absolute must for the serious racing cyclist.
