Technology

PureGrip compound
Based on an activated silica compound, this technology was originally developed for mid-range products, but intensive development at the Research and Development centre in Korbach produced a new advanced compound with excellent grip and properties suited to cross-country riding.
The new rubber compound, whose PureGrip name speaks for itself, sits just below BlackChili and is used in high-end products for both road and MTB use. Alongside great grip, it also ensures a long lifespan, both characteristics of Continental tyres, which are manufactured exclusively at the Hefei factory (Asia).

Founded in Hanover in 1871, Continental is still based in the German city today. For cyclists, it makes tires and inner tubes for road, gravel, mountain biking and urban riding. Its connection with bicycles goes back to its early days: in 1892, it became the first German company to produce pneumatic bicycle tires.
