The Grand Prix TR was developed for riders looking for a cost-effective tubeless-ready tire that perfectly balances puncture protection and rolling resistance. Whether for training, commuting or long-distance use, the Grand Prix TR is the ideal companion. The newly developed 4-ply carcass construction is largely responsible for its high puncture protection and low weight. Continental's legendary Black Chili compound is used for low rolling resistance and high grip in all conditions.
FEATURES
Black Chili Compound - The rolling properties of the rubber compound of a tire are primarily determined by three interacting factors – stiction [grip], rolling resistance and mileage [longevity]. The dilemma: If you improve any of these factors it can have a detrimental effect on at least one of the others. A tire with maximum grip wears quicker and rolls more slowly. If you then make a tire roll faster and more durable, grip, in turn, is reduced.
Lazer Grip - To make you one with the road. The lazered micro profile structure expands over the tire’s shoulder and provides outstanding cornering.
Tubeless Ready - Our carcass construction is robust and impervious against damage and penetration from foreign objects. The result: versatile, low weight and an attractive design. In addition, tires made using this technology can also be used as Tubeless or with an inner tube.
