Continental Gatorskin Folding - Black Edition

The Continental Gatorskin is a tough, durable road tyre for training and commuting.

It is an extremely high mileage and puncture resistant tyre, making it great value for money while reducing the risk of annoying punctures.

The Continental Gatorskin uses the latest technology to prevent against flats, such as the patented DuraSkin sidewall protection.

The DuraSkin sidewall reinforcement forms an external protective shield over the entire casing to prevent cuts and abrasions.

On top of this, the Continental Gatorskin benefits from Continental's revised PolyX Breaker compound which has proven itself time and again in car tyres to prevent against punctures.

The slick DuraCarbon rubber of the Gatorskins is designed to perform well in both dry and wet conditions while providing maximum grip and long-lasting usage.

• Kevlar belt under the tread for cut and puncture protection.
• DuraSkin fabric makes this one long lasting tyre.
• THE only tyre for your winter / high mileage bike.
• Aramid belt under tread.
• Quality German made natural rubber tread.
  

PolyX Breaker™

With PolyX Breaker™ car expertise comes to the bicycle tyre sector.

Polyester has been used successfully for years in car tyres and has proved extremely effective.

The extremely resistant polyester fibre is woven tightly crosswise. A very high fabric density is achieved which makes the breaker resistant not only to foreign bodies, but especially to ­punctures.

The rolling resistance is not affected by this breaker.

DuraSkin®

Tyres with DuraSkin® sidewall protection have to be able to roll with the punches.

They are used under the harshest conditions. On messenger bikes, the tyres skid along curbs; on touring bikes, they cross continents without wearing out.

In racing cycling, they have to endure tough tests such as the Paris-Roubaix.

The high-quality polyamide fabric protects the tyre casing against the worst conditions.
