We have decided to bundle together the superb Continental GP4000S II tyres with two of our exceptional performing LifeLine Inner Tubes, all for your convenience.

The Grand Prix 4000S II is the ultimate race tyre. Featuring the Vectran Breaker for unsurpassed puncture protection and the BlackChili compound for lower rolling resistance and increased grip. This pair of tyres equips you with speed and traction, combined with the LifeLine inner tubes, which are made of high-quality butyl rubber and air leakage tested to ensure excellent reliability.
Vectran is a synthetically manufactured high-tech fibre that is sourced from natural resources. It has comparable properties to spider silk by having enormous tear resistance at a very low weight - exactly the right properties to act as a puncture protection insert for a Continental premium bike tyre. The Vectran Breaker is lighter, more flexible, protects more effectively against cuts than the comparable nylon breaker and does not negatively affect rolling resistance in any way.
Continental have refined newly developed synthetic rubbers with natural rubber with the proven high-performance tread compound. These rubbers are mixed with special nanometric carbon soot particles, which are optimized specifically depending on the shape and surface properties the intended tyre profile requires. Tyres with BlackChili Compound reach an exceptional level of performance, grip, service life and traction that is fine-tuned to the exact intended cycling purpose of the tyre itself.
These tyres are designed to meet the rigours of city/trail riding and will fit Hybrid styled bikes, they are wider than a road race tyre to offer a larger contact area with the road and will provide more comfort. Wider tyres are less prone to punctures and will provide more grip. Within this range we offer semi slick or knobbly tyres, the semi slick tyres will be ideal for road use and the knobbly style will provide more grip for light trail use or loose surfaces such as gravel.
More than 100 years experience in the development and production of bicycle tyres has made Continental a unique company within the industry. Continental is the only German bicycle tyre manufacturer to produce its tyres in Germany. Knowing this serves as a mighty incentive to our engineers and everyone else involved in the manufacturing process to constantly strive for further innovations. In our technology and development center in Korbach, we are constantly developing new revolutionary technologies such as the unbeatable Black Chili Compound and the ultimate Vectran™ Breaker anti-puncture technology, both used at the top end of race sport. These technologies demand sophisticated processes to ensure our legendary end-product quality, and these innovations as well as the new “ProTection” and ”RaceSport” technology for MTB tyres, can only be manufactured in our factory in Germany – “Handmade in Germany”. In order to offer the best tyre for any application, we rely equally on dialogue with our professional racers, hobby cyclists and everyday bike riders. This results not only in high-end products for top sports applications such as the new Podium TT or the revolutionary downhill tyre “Der Kaiser”, but also tyres for everyday use like the new innovative combination EcoContact/EcoContact Plus as a companion to the latest e-bike trend. As a global player, Continental also maintains high-tech production facilities outside of Germany, where Continental tyres are produced for you with an equal degree of care and dedication. One thing all Continental bicycle tyres have in common is that they are developed in the technology center in Korbach, Germany, where they also undergo strict inspection. Our heart and soul is behind the phrase “Handmade in Germany”, with all of its products and technologies.
