Continental Grand Prix 4000s II Cycling Tire, Black Set of 2 Tires, 700 x 23C
Continental Grand Prix 4000 S II
The grand prix 4000 s ii is the reference tire on the market and has already gone through many stages of evolution. We are giving the flagship a new face. The discreet bead strip makes it possible to perfectly color coordinate to the bike without forgoing Black Chili tread performance. We have also expanded the size range: an additional 28 mm version provides better grip under poor conditions, improved puncture protection and greater comfort. The proven cornerstones of the 4000 s ii remain unchanged: Vectran breaker for unsurpassed puncture protection, Black Chili compound for low rolling resistance and sensational grip – handmade of course in Germany.
The Grand Prix 4000 S II is the ideal combination of comfort, puncture protection, and low rolling resistance. It’s the perfect all-rounder for all conceivable conditions with excellent puncture protection thanks to Vectran puncture protection and BlackChilli’s high mileage rolling efficiency. Handmade in Germany.
