Continental Gatorskin Black Edition Foldable Clincher Tire

The Continental Gatorskin Black Edition Foldable Clincher Tire was built for riders who put in serious mileage and can't afford a training day cut short by a flat. At its core is a PolyX Breaker layer — a tightly woven polyester fiber designed to resist penetration from road debris — backed by a DuraSkin reinforcement layer that adds abrasion and cut resistance along the sidewall, where most tires are most vulnerable.

The carbon black compound is formulated for durability over the long haul, making this a natural fit for high-volume training, commuting, or any riding where reliability over thousands of kilometres matters more than chasing the last gram. The foldable bead keeps it packable and easy to carry as a spare. Available in four widths — 23c through 32c — so it fits everything from a lightweight road frame to a gravel-leaning setup.
