Attack Comp & Force Comp Set
World premiere!
The result of a collaboration between Continental and ProTour
teams, this is a completely new type of tyre concept. The first
TirePositioningSystem (TPS) Tubular. At the front, the 22 mm
narrow Attack Comp does its work and provides improved
aerodynamics as well as high agility through faster transition
into corners. At the rear, the Force Comp power machine at
24 mm provides a large contact area that guarantees a better
power transmission as well as low rolling resistance. Couple
this with a higher service mileage and a higher level of comfort
thanks to the wider casing, and you get a tubular which is
especially forgiving with today’s ultra stiff racing bikes. This
set is hand sewn in Korbach, and features our BlackChili
Compound as well as Vectran Breaker anti puncture
technology.
The time machine!
TT stands for time trial! In the race against the clock, entire
tours are decided which is reason enough to offer an
especially fast TT tyre, just look at Cadel Evans’ victory in the
2011 Tour de France! Although designed as a time-trial specific
tubular, the Podium TT is also popular among pros in regular
road races. The reason for this is its design: Thanks to the
latest BlackChili Compound, this Chrono-Specialist available
in 19 and 22 mm widths is not only super-fast, its Vectran
Breaker also offers excellent puncture protection. The Podium
is a lightweight tubular tyre, weighing in at only 205 grams in
its 22 mm width. Low weight means low rotation energy. The
tread thickness has been reduced to 0.7 mm, enough for a
few hard racing days. The ultra-fast slick tread shows you how
fast it is even when it’s not moving!

Competition
Grand Prix 4000 Tubular
The Grand Master.
The Competition stands for true handwork with a needle and
thread. It is the most dependable tyre in the pro peloton. It has
proven itself time and time again on the world stage often
accompanying prominent cyclists to their victory, just like
Cadel Evans at the Tour de France in 2011. We are proud of our
Competition, that’s why we always keep it on the road to
victory. The Competition was the first tyre in our range to be
equipped with BlackChili Compound and Vectran Breaker.
GP4000S in tubular format
The Grand Prix 4000 tubular offers fans our world leading
clincher tyre the option of fitting matching tubulars. It entices
professional cyclists with its new technology. A seamless
casing design improves the rim seating, uniformity and rolling
resistance. The name, the dynamic tread design of the Grand
Prix 4000 and of course a Vectran puncture protection
breaker state the high ambitions of this tyre. Also includes
the innovative BlackChili tread mixture. What will you fit to
your carbon road wheels?
