Continental Grand Prix 5000 Clincher Tire - Cream Info
The Continental Grand Prix 5000 Clincher Tire in Cream is built around a single compound that Continental manufactures exclusively at their facility in Germany — BlackChili — a formulation that uses refined synthetic materials and soot particles to optimize both grip and rolling resistance without trading one for the other. The result is a tire that feels fast in a straight line and confident through corners, across 700x25c and 700x28c widths.
Underneath the tread, a Vectran breaker layer — made from a liquid-crystalline polymer — provides puncture resistance at low weight without the rolling penalty of heavier protection systems. Active Comfort Technology works alongside the supple casing to absorb road buzz, which matters more on longer rides than most riders expect. The shoulder features a lasered micro-profile structure designed to maintain traction when the bike is leaned over — not just when it's upright.
