The Contact tyre features a popular tread pattern known for its high grip and safety. It includes a specially developed sipe structure that enhances traction. Additionally, the tyre offers light puncture protection with the Safety System puncture protection insert. Its durable carcass and long-lasting treads make it ideal for sporty use and versatile enough for touring.
The Safety System Breaker is constructed from kevlar-reinforced, high-strength nylon fabric, providing puncture and cut resistance while remaining lightweight and flexible. This design allows it to adapt better to the ground without significantly increasing weight or rolling resistance, protecting the carcass from foreign objects and contributing to a longer tyre life.
These energy-saving tyres, marked with the Continental ECO logo, benefit from over 100 years of experience in developing moped and motorcycle tyres. They are optimized for e-bikes up to 25 km/h, ensuring low rolling resistance and excellent puncture protection due to their high-quality construction. Their durability has been specifically tested for e-bikes to prevent premature wear from additional driving force.
