Specifications

Experience the perfect blend of speed, durability, and comfort with the Continental Contact Speed Tire - engineered for serious cyclists seeking reliable performance on city streets, touring, and hybrid riding. Designed for 700 x 42mm clincher wheels, this wire bead tire offers enhanced grip, puncture protection, and a sleek aesthetic, making it an ideal choice for urban cyclists, fitness riders, and e-bike enthusiasts.

Materials and Construction

Constructed with high-quality rubber compounds and a robust wire bead, the Continental Contact Speed tire provides excellent stability and ease of installation. Its durable rubber tread is reinforced with Continental's innovative SafetySystem Breaker technology-Kevlar-reinforced, high-strength nylon fabric that offers superior puncture and cut resistance without adding unnecessary weight. With a TPI (Threads Per Inch) of 330, the tire boasts exceptional flexibility, contributing to a smoother ride and optimized rolling resistance.

Performance & Engineering

Built for the demands of urban and hybrid cycling, the Contact Speed tire excels in balancing speed and comfort.

The tire is rated E25 for e-bike compatibility, thanks to its reinforced structure that withstands the additional torque and stresses from electric motor assist. The clincher bead type ensures easy mounting and compatibility with standard rims for quick installation on touring and hybrid bikes.

Style & Use Case

With a sleek black finish, the Continental Contact Speed tire complements any bike's aesthetic while delivering top-tier performance. Its versatile 700 x 42mm size makes it suitable for touring, hybrid indoor/outdoor riding, and city commuting. Ideal for riders who prioritize speed without sacrificing durability or comfort, this tire is perfect for everyday urban adventures, fast-paced fitness rides, and long-distance touring.
