Product Description
Continental 0100175 Grand Prix 4-Season 700X25 Black Tire provides you with even greater puncture resistance thanks to the Duraskin fabric. Light-weight racing tires are especially susceptible to damage on the sidewall. Because of this, each year many cyclists are forced to abandon events, for instance in the Paris-Roubaix race. The Duraskin fabric reinforces the sidewall without significantly adding to the weight of the tire. In 2004, cyclists equipped with Duraskin tires had 80 percent fewer flats than those riding on other makes. The compound has also been modified for all-year-round use. You'll cover more kilometers on the Grand Prix 4-Season and won't have to worry about the tire compound hardening and thus the grip performance decreasing. The 23mm, 25mm and 28mm versions also make it possible to select the right tire for various road qualities and comfort requirements. The Grand Prix 4-Season tires also feature Vectran Breaker protection. Vectran is a lightweight, highly abrasion-resistant multi-fibered layer that sits under the tread, and is five times stronger than steel. Specs: Weight - 230 grams; Recommended PSI - 110; Maximum PSI - 120; PU - 10.
- DuraSkin Protection: lightweight sidewall protection

10 of 10 people found the following review helpful One Tough Tire, By PurplePiano88 (Arkansas) - See all my reviews This review is from: Continental Grand Prix 4 Season Road Tire (Misc.) I ride around 3,000 miles per year on some pretty rough roads. I've had a set of these on my bike long enough to completely wear the tread off the tires and have only had one flat that I can remember. Traded them for a very nice set of tires from a different manufacturer for the summer season and had 4 flats in one month. I put my old Continental Grand Prix 4 Season tires back on, and will run them until the new ones I've ordered arrive. If my new set performs as well as my old one does, I will continue to run these tires as long as they are available. I highly recommend these tires! 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful Great tires, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Continental Grand Prix 4 Season Road Tire (Sports) Bought these to replace the stock Bontrager race lite tires (aka: lead weights) on my Trek 520. They roll beautifully and are very supple; you can feel the pavement underneath you. I've always run Conti's GP's on my bikes but I really like these tires. I also weighed them when I got them and they were around 270 grams a piece, so they are light too. I won't run any other tire but I do run them a little under max pressure because I feel they ride better and I randonneur so the comfort over the long haul is important to me. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful Great traction, low rolling resistance, but most importantly - NO FLATS!!!, By Carpe Diem (PA, US) - See all my reviews This review is from: Continental Grand Prix 4 Season Road Tire (Misc.) I also needed to get rid of the cumbersome stock Bontragers that came with my Trek so I purchased Michelin Krylion tires because they were supposed to be durable. I started to flat every week so I did some research and decided to try the Continental 4 Season tires.Well, 500+ miles after installing the Contis I've been flat-free (fingers crossed). These miles included riding though chipped and tarred streets, potholes, debris, glass, etc. - not bike-riding friendly streets for the most part. These tires are low weight but have a high tpi count giving them exceptional "grippyness" and low rolling resistance. I love the feel and will be purchasing them for my next set (hopefully not any time soon). |
