CONTINENTAL SPECIALS
Continental Race King Supersonic Tire - 26in
The Continental Race King is the tire choice of two-time XC World Champion Irina Kalentieva (she scored the silver at the 2010 Worlds at Mt. Ste. Anne in Quebec on these tires, on a very soupy course). While the tire can withstand such goop, its rolled shoulder profile and diamond-head arrow center ...read more
Continental Mountain King Tire - 26in
This is not the 2010 Mountain King ProTection. Nor is it the rockin' Mountain King UST, or Mountain King Race Sport. Head spinning yet? Don't sweat it. The reason for the similar naming convention is that Mountain King indicates a tread pattern, and each additional feature that comes with that ...read more
Continental Race King Tire - 29in

Continental Grand Prix 4000 Tire - Tubular
We've seen few product introductions cause such seismic interest as the release of the Conti GP4000 clincher tire. Its billing was mind-boggling, but its performance backed it up: With the GP4000 you get the suppleness and grip of the vaunted GP3000, but with longer tread wear, greater puncture ...read more
Continental Race King UST Tubeless Tire - 26in
Take one glance at the Continental Race King UST's tread pattern and you'll see that this tire's goal, first and foremost, is to roll fast. It comes as no surprise that Irina Kalentieva--riding for Topeak/Ergon--took the first Race King prototype to a spot on the podium at the 2007 UCI World ...read more
Continental Der Kaiser 26in Tire
We do not sell a bejeweled crown and fur-trimmed robe with Continental Der Kaiser tires, though you might feel like awarding yourself the royal ensemble after a single ride on these gravity-oriented tires. These are tires that ride right for the AM, DH, and FR applications.Looking at the image ...read more
Continental Grand Prix Attack Front Tire - Clincher
It should be no surprise that your front and rear tires serve different roles on the bike. All you need to do is see the differences in their respective wear pattern and wear rates. With that fact in mind, the Continental Grand Prix Attack Clincher Tire is a front-specific tire built to offer ...read more
Continental Race King Black Chili ProTection Tire - 26in
The Continental Race King Black Chili Protection Tire is the best choice for those looking for pure speed along with thorn battling durability. The key ingredient is the ProTection layer -- a fourth ply of rubber-wrapped, extra tough nylon casing that encompasses the entire tire.While the ...read more
Continental Rim Cement
In the tubular tire-rim interface, the difficult surface to work with is the rim. Base tape, which is just about always a woven strip of cotton cloth, is easy. Glue seeps between the threads, stays there, and dries. The rim is another story. The glue has to bond to the rim in some way, but not ...read more
Continental Grand Prix Force Rear Tire - Clincher
The Continental Grand Prix Force Rear Clincher Tire is a rear-specific tire built to offer an ideal blend of traction and durability. A big part of its ability to deliver seemingly mutually exclusive traits is that the Force Rear Tire is made with Continental's Black Chili rubber compound. Just like ...read more
Continental X-King UST Tubeless Tire - 26in
While the Continental X-King UST Tubeless Tire is the heaviest of the race and trail focused X-King line, it's also a dedicated tubeless tire. Because of that, it's probably the most versatile of the lot. It can be run at far lower PSI than a tubed version, enabling better conformity to the trail ...read more
Continental Race King Tire - 26in
The Supersonic line is for no-holds-barred race-only rubber. The Continental Race King Supersonic tire is thus the most-perfectly speed-optimized version of the Race King tires for people racing cross-country, enduros, and marathons. To this end, Continental saves weight by eliminating the ...read more
Continental Race Supersonic Tube
Race day follows a different set of rules -- different breakfast, different alarm time, different tires, and hopefully, different tubes. You need to be racing as light as possible, and a bulk-bought, durable training tube might get you to the finish line, but it won't get you there first. The ...read more
Continental Podium TT Tire - Tubular
Let's talk about friction. Not the kind in your hub and bottom bracket bearings, which is relatively minimal. Rather, especially in the realm of time trialing, your tire choice could be as important as whether or not to wear a teardrop shaped helmet. And Continental builds their Podium TT Tubular ...read more
Continental Sprinter GatorSkin Tire - Tubular
Gluing and peeling tubulars is a (serious) labor of love, and many will only bear with the hassle when it comes to their race wheels. But if you ride tubulars all year long, there's no better training tire, especially for the off-season, than the Continental Sprinter Gatorskin Tubular Tire.The ...read more
Continental Competition Tire - Tubular
Vectran isn’t a sci-fi character and Eric Zabel’s not joking when he says, ‘hot tires!’ in reference to Continental’s Competition Tubular Road Bike Tires. Sewn by little old ladies in Korbach, Germany, the Competition uses Vectran Technology—a liquid crystal polymer that prevents p ...read more
Continental Der Baron Tire
Big, aggressive knobs and a soft Black Chili compound team up to give the Der Baron Tire excellent downhill traction and control. Continental also ensured that this tire's ready for the sidewall-destroying rocks and ledges that litter DH runs.The dual ply carcass is reinforced with Apex -- a rubber ...read more

Continental Race Light Tube
If you're like us, you find comfort on the middle path; far away from the polarities of the cycling world.
