The long-distance runner. A durable carbon black mixture, a well-regarded puncture protection system and the DuraSkin™-anti-cut fabric turn the GatorSkin into a real long-distance runner. In varying widths of 23mm and 25mm it can be used on the way to work as well as training for road races or for sportives and audax. A durable, tough tyre at a really nice price. 

PolyX Breaker Technology  

With their PolyX Breaker, Continental bring PKW know-how to the bike tyre arena – Polyester has been used successfully for years in car tyres and been tried and tested many times. The extremely resistant polyester fibre is woven tightly crosswire making a very high fabric density which not only makes the Breaker more resistant to foreign objects, but is also resistant to punctures. The rolling resistance is not affected either by the PolyX Breaker. 

DuraSkin  

Tyres with DuraSkin sidewall protection have to roll with the punches. These tyres are used in the harshest conditions. On messenger bikes, on epic travel bikes crossing continents without wearing through and in professional cycling they have to endure tough tests such as Paris-Roubaix. The high-quality polyamide fabric reliably protects the casing of the tyre and protects the tyre from the worst conditions. These tyres stand out with their brown sidewalls. The slick natural rubber tread is designed to perform well in wet/wintery conditions.

About the Continental brand

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.

Rated 5 out of 5 by runner1234 from Durable but fast tyres at a good price These tyres are fast, but still durable. Used for many miles with no problems, on roads of variable quality.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bikeman1234 from Fast rolling and very puncture resistant I use these on my fixie and skid alot. I don't think theres a better tyre on the market for the job. Buy these for any bike and you won't be disappointed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by TK92 from Very good tyres, great puncture resistance Bought these to replace some scwalbe tyres that were getting worn out, and having two punctures in two rides I bit the bullet. I am so glad I did. I've been running these now for about a year through all types of weather and approximately 5,000KM's and not had one issue with them, despite cycle paths being littered with thorns and glass, these have never failed on me. They look like they will last a long time, still. They are quite difficult to fit, however, but can be overcome with some decent tyre levers and practise.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Fellowesd from Conti gators A bit stiff so lacking in feel compared to my old tyres, although I’m going the puncture resistance will negate this on my single speed! Great value and fast delivery as always!
