Continental Grand Prix GT

The name Continental Grand Prix GT has become a brand in its own right in cycling circles. The Grand Prix is THE classic tyre and a sign to quality and performancea claim which appears again in the new Grand Prix.

Like its predecessor the new generation is eager to set its own standards. The new Grand Prix leads the trends towards wide tyres in cycling. Wider tyres roll easier, have a higher mileage and offer more comfort and grip. The main size of the Grand Prix is 24 mm. Wide enough to show off the advantages of wider tyres, but still light and slim enough to be built into any racing machine.

• If you like the reliability of Gatorskins but also want the performance of a GP4000S BlackChili compound, then this could be the tyre for you!
• An extra-wide PolyX Breaker protects against thorns, glass and other sharp objects whilst a continuous 3 ply casing gives 50% more sidewall thickness without adding much weight
• These features earn the endorsment GT (Grand Tour), earmarking the tyre for sportives, marathons and multi-day events
• Black Chili compound and the tried and tested Grand Prix profile offer outstanding grip and handling characteristics
• Handmade in Germany
