PureGrip Compound
Based on activated silica compounds, this technology was originally intended as an performance level compound, but after intensive development at our Korbach Research and Development Department Facility, an advanced new compound with outstanding grip and cross-country properties was developed. This new rubber mix, given the self explanatory name "PureGrip", is ranked just behind our BlackChili Compound and is being used in our performance products both in the road and mountain bike sectors. Whilst providing great grip, it is also long lasting and highly durable – both characteristics of Continental tires, which are exclusively manufactured in the factory in Hefei (Asia).
Suitable for E-Bikes
For our E-Bike tyre we fall back on over 100 years' experience with moped and motorcycle tires. All of our city/trekking tires are rated to a standard speed of at least 25 km/h. Those tires marked e50 are also certified for S-Pedelecs. With their high quality structure, puncture protection is high and the rolling resistance is low offering protection from premature wear brought about by the additional driving force.

Cannonball is a go-to gravel race tire for normal conditions. The tread pattern features a directional, tight-knit center tread that sheds dirt and debris to decrease rolling resistance, and side knobs for effective cornering traction. Cannonball is built for all-around gravel riders and racers.
HOW IT WORKS
- Center lugs are raised and ramped for rolling efficiency; the diamond-shaped lugs squeeze in for grip as they contact dirt, then back out to shed debris.
- Transitions lugs are spaced out and vary in height to boost traction.
- L-shaped side lugs dig in for grip while braking through corners, but roll quickly when off the brakes.
$65.00 - $80.00
Designed with the unknown in mind, the Rutland takes the guess work out of selecting the right tire for the ride. Ramped, tightly spaced center lugs reduce rolling resistance while larger, more spaced-out shoulder and transition lugs provide grip in loose conditions.
- Designed and inspired by experiences riding and racing rolling coarse-gravel routes
- Tubeless ready for flat prevention, lower-pressure traction and comfort
- Ideal internal rim width is 23mm
HOW IT WORKS
- Center lugs are large and widely spaced for braking and acceleration grip, and ramped to lower rolling resistance.
- Transition lugs are spaced out to shed mud; siping conforms to the road surface for increased traction in corners.
- Side lugs are staggered to provide traction in more aggressive turns and on loose surfaces.
