Description
Specifications

Experience unparalleled durability and confidence on your urban rides with the Continental Pure Contact Tire - 700 x 40. Designed for versatile road cycling, this high-performance clincher tire seamlessly blends cutting-edge engineering with sustainable manufacturing, making it ideal for commuters, touring cyclists, and hybrid riders seeking a reliable, safety-enhanced tire.

Materials & Construction

Crafted with advanced materials, the Pure Contact features a robust Vectran breaker spun from liquid crystal-polymer fibers, offering exceptional cut resistance and tensile strength-five times higher than steel-while maintaining lightweight flexibility. Complemented by PolyX Breaker, woven from densely packed polyester fibers, this tire delivers superior puncture resistance without increasing rolling resistance. The tires are constructed with responsibly sourced rubber and natural materials, emphasizing sustainability in every ride.

Performance & Engineering

Engineered for smooth, dependable riding, the 330 TPI (threads per inch) casing provides excellent flexibility and durability. The E50 e-bike rating ensures robust protection against the increased forces of electric-assist cycling, extending tire life under high torque conditions. Designed with a 700c diameter and a 40mm width, it offers optimal traction and comfort on various road surfaces.

Components & Technology

Innovative sidewall features include the Graphite Reflex Stripe, enhancing visibility in low-light conditions, increasing safety during urban commutes, and night rides. The clincher design with a folding bead allows easy installation and reduced weight, while the high-quality structure reduces premature wear even on demanding e-bike journeys.

Style & Use Case

Available in sleek Black, Coffee, and Graphite Reflex, the Pure Contact combines aesthetic appeal with practicality. Perfect for road, touring, and hybrid cycling, it excels in city commuting, shopping trips, and longer explorations-providing confidence whether you're navigating busy streets or scenic routes.

Key Features & Benefits

- Superior Puncture & Cut Resistance: Vectran and PolyX Breaker technologies protect against flats and foreign objects.

- Enhanced Safety: Reflective side stripes improve side-on visibility in low-light and urban environments.

- Eco-Friendly Manufacturing: Built with recycled and renewable materials following sustainable practices.

- High Comfort & Performance: 700 x 40 size with a high TPI count ensures a smooth ride with excellent rolling efficiency.
