CONTINENTAL Tyre Race King 29 x 2,20 BlackChili ProTection

CONTINENTAL Tyre Race King 29 x 2.2" BlackChili ProTection

Sidewall: Black

The Race King starts the new season with a modified tread pattern and a revised sidewall. Above all, a better interaction between rim and tire prevents air loss if the tire is to be ridden tubeless.

The king of the racetrack is constantly conquering new titles and defending old ones. Many professionals swear by this tire. Thanks to continuous further development, Conti has made this tire even faster and safer and improved its self-cleaning properties. The rolling resistance is very similar to that of a slick tire, which guarantees a high speed. Despite this, the tread develops a lot of grip on dry, compact and sandy surfaces.

Made in Germany
These tires are among the highest quality products from Continental. They are manufactured in the Korbach plant and set special standards in terms of workmanship and quality.

BlackChili Compound
At Conti, BlackChili means above all that grip, rolling resistance and durability are combined at a level that almost makes you believe in magic. Continental simply uses the very latest and best technologies. Polymers, carbon black particles and fillers optimized down to the nano range guarantee the unique performance of the BlackChili compound. It revolutionized the basic conflict between grip and rolling resistance. Approximately 30% more grip and a 26% improvement in rolling resistance compared to the silica compound ensure better performance and safety.
Continental tires consist entirely of this high-quality rubber compound. This means that the tires can be worn down to the carcass without losing the first-class properties of the rubber!

ProTection
ProTection technology gives the tires a perfect blend of smooth running, grip and puncture protection. The improved puncture protection is achieved through a continuous additional layer that increases resistance to all types of damage. However, this does not diminish the good running properties of Conti tires. Another great feature is the tubeless ready function. Thanks to the reinforcement, tires with ProTection carcass are best suited for tubeless mounting with sealing milk. The additional material minimizes the formation of micropores and thus speeds up the sealing process immensely.
