Bicycle Tire Continental RACE KING II 29” 50-622 (29x2.0)

The Bicycle Tire Continental RACE KING II 29” 50-622 (29x2.0) is a premium quality tire with a long service life proven successful on tarmac as well as on gravel thanks to good traction provided by its broad contact area in the tread pattern. This is a classic competition tire which feels at home at the Cross-Country World Cup or at marathons. Low rolling resistance, good self-damping and low weight make it the right choice for all race bikes. The ShieldWall system combines the optimum combination of high puncture protection and the low rolling resistance with low weight. This is made possible by an additional, all-round puncture protection layer, which consists of a finely woven cross fabric. This gives the tire a high resistance to punctures and damage. Despite its additional ply, the tire has a very good damping property and a high degree of flexibility to adapt perfectly to the ground. The revolutionary tubeless ready bead allows easy and uncomplicated mounting of the tire. Based on activated silica compounds, this technology was originally intended as a performance level compound, but after intensive development, an advanced new compound with outstanding grip and cross-country properties was developed. This new rubber mix, given the self-explanatory name “PureGrip”, is being used in Continental performance products both in the road and mountain bike sectors. Whilst providing great grip, it is also long lasting and highly durable.
