Continental Gatorskin Road Wire Tyre 700x23C

Created by Continental to go the distance in any weather type, the Gatorskin Road Bike Tyre is the go-to tyre of choice for cyclists who need a durable and reliable road tyre with excellent resistance to punctures.

Made For Harsh Conditions

This Gatorskin tyre has been specifically designed to withstand the harshest of tests. Made from a durable carbon black mixture, it features Continental’s bespoke technologies like DuraSkin® for superior sidewall protection. It also boasts a PolyX Breaker for puncture resistance, so you can battle wet and wintery conditions and not worry about nasty, sharp road debris.

 

Technologies:

• DuraSkin®: Tyres with DuraSkin sidewall protection have to roll with the punches. These tyres are used in the harshest conditions. On messenger bikes, on epic travel bikes crossing continents without wearing through and in professional cycling they have to endure tough tests such as Paris-Roubaix. The high-quality polyamide fabric reliably protects the casing of the tyre and protects the tyre from the worst conditions. These tyres stand out with their brown sidewalls. The slick natural rubber tread is designed to perform well in wet/wintery conditions
• PolyX Breaker Technology: With their PolyX Breaker, Continental brings PKW know-how to the bike tyre arena – Polyester has been used successfully for years in car tyres and been tried and tested many times. The extremely resistant polyester fibre is woven tightly crosswire making a very high fabric density which not only makes the Breaker more resistant to foreign objects but is also resistant to punctures. The rolling resistance is not affected either by the PolyX Breaker

• Casing: 3/180 TPI
