BlackChili Compound

This tyre compound sits at the highest level of MTB rubber tyre compounds. Featuring the perfect balance between speed, grip and lifespan while far exceeding what other brands and models on the market can offer in terms of performance.

ProTection Casing

This technology is the ultimate combination of smooth-rolling performance, grip and puncture protection, and has been optimised to ensure it is the best available. Featuring an additional all-around puncture protection layer, from bead to bead. It is exceptionally durable and non-reactive to terrain damage, it just keeps rolling and rolling through whatever is desired and does not falter in performance no matter how demanding the trail becomes.

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.

Continental Race King Folding MTB Tyre - ProTection is rated 4.3 out of 5 by 7.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Caff70 from Very fast rolling, fits well on a 25mm rim I ordered these in 29 x 2.2 based on the reviews I'd read. I'd purchased new wheels and wanted a fast rolling tyre for commuting and these definitely do the job. I've set them up tubeless, very easy to seat on a 25mm internal rim. I used an airshow but I'm pretty sure you could seat these using just a track pump. They roll well, offer good grip and are doing the job I intended them to. I'd recommend these.

Rated 4 out of 5 by karlyboy from New version not as robust as previous versions I was a great fan of the raceking protection as a rear tyre. I rode for over thousand miles, with no issue - however that was on the previous version back before 2018. I rode the Transpyr across the Pyrenees on a set, which showed little sign of wear, when other tyres (including Ikons) were puncturing. The new version I have not found anywhere near as robust - I have had 3 side wall punctures and 3 tread punctures. I just completed a 2K plus ride across France - on average 1 in 3 side knobs were gone and it punctured in the tread on day 2 Conti shed some weight, but at the expense of durability. It's still a fast rolling tyre, but my confidence in using it for rougher/longer rides has dropped

Rated 5 out of 5 by DunnoMate from Great all round there for my level Easy to seat when going tubeless. Good girl on all but the nastiest of mud for my level of riding. I leave it on all year round, on a 29er xc bike. Great all rounder.

Rated 5 out of 5 by rainey64 from Fantastic fast-rolling tyres These tyres have been excellent from start. Probably the easiest tubeless tyres I've ever fitted !! Fitted by hand - not even soapy water required - inflated with a track pump 1st time ... I even left them overnight without sealant and they remained inflated. After injecting sealant and going for a couple of rides on mixed terrain - albeit hardback and gravel - they roll and grip fast and predictably. Very very impressed from start to finish
