Continental GP5000S TR 700x30C Tubeless Tire Brown C0101875
Description
Although the Continental Grand Prix 5000 is still one of the fastest and most popular road bike tires, that hasn't stopped the German manufacturer's developers from launching an all-around improved tubeless-ready (TR) version.
At first glance, the 5000 S TR is hardly distinguishable from the previous version. However, the familiar Lazer Grip profile structure hides a completely newly developed design. Unlike the previous version, the 5000 S TR has only 2 fabric layers under the tread instead of 3. This provides a better grip on the road and contributes significantly to a 20% reduction in rolling resistance. Thanks to the Vectran Breaker puncture protection layer and the non-slip Black Chili tread from the previous version, the reduction in the number of layers has no negative effect on puncture protection. The sidewalls still consist of 3 layers with the newly added protective layer. This not only increases the puncture protection of the sidewalls by 28%, but also ensures that the tyre runs more stably at low inflation pressures. The new, patented inner tube structure, which does not require a sealing rubber layer, makes the tyre 50 grams lighter than the previous version.
The new 5000 S TR, long awaited by many Conti fans, is now also compatible with hookless rims. However, it can still be ridden with classic rims and also with tubes.
The new tubeless tyre has already proven its outstanding properties and versatility in racing. Both the individual time trial world title and the Paris-Roubaix victory were achieved with the 5000 ST R.
Handcrafted in Germany
More than 100 years of experience in the development and production of bicycle tyres make Continental a unique company in the industry. Continental is also the only German bicycle tyre manufacturer that produces in Germany! Conti tyres are hand-made in Germany using unique technologies and materials.
Black Pepper Compound
In Conti, BlackChili means above all that grip, rolling resistance and durability come together at a level that almost makes you believe in magic. Continental uses the latest and best technologies. The latest polymers, soot particles and fillers optimized down to the nano range guarantee the unique performance of the BlackChili compound. It has revolutionized the fundamental conflict between grip and rolling resistance. Approx. 30% more grip and 26% better rolling resistance compared to the silica compound, ensuring better performance and safety.
Continental tyres are made entirely from this high-quality rubber compound, so the tyres can be worn right down to the casing without losing the rubber's first-class properties!
Anyone who has ever tyred with Black Chilli would want nothing else!
Vectran Crusher
Vectran™ is a synthetically produced high-tech fiber based on a natural model. Like spider silk, Vectran™ is a liquid crystal polymer (LCP). Vectran™ is spun from the molten liquid polymer Vectra and then processed into a multifilament yarn. Spider silk and Vectran™ have exceptional tear resistance at minimal weight. Higher puncture resistance and lower weight are the advantages of the Vectran breaker. Vectran is more cut-resistant than aramid, 5 times more tensile than steel and lighter than nylon yarn without affecting rolling resistance. This provides the ideal protective layer for tires. Vectran was developed for airbag systems in the automotive and aerospace industries.
Tubeless
TL technology has been specifically designed to adapt the tubeless system to the demands of road cycling. It is easy to install and reliable to use. The specially developed tubeless foot ensures a seal with its shape and ensures a firm grip on the rim.
Active Comfort Technology
A revolutionary approach to road cycling. Active Comfort technology integrated into the tyre structure absorbs impacts and provides an extraordinary riding experience.
Laser grip
It allows you to become one with the street. The laser micro profile structure focuses on the shoulder area of the tire and provides better grip in corners.
NOTE: For hookless rims, the tyre pressure must not exceed 5 bar (73 PSI). Continental recommends using a minimum of 30 ml of suitable tubeless sealant for initial assembly.
