The dilemma: If you improve any of these factors it can have a detrimental effect on at least one of the others. A tire with maximum grip wears quicker and rolls more slowly. If you then make a tire roll faster and more durable, grip, in turn, is reduced.\u003cbr\u003eWith the Black Chili compound, a tread compound which is always based on the latest knowledge of polymers and raw material research, Continental has supplied the cycling industry with an enduring solution. Depending on the application of a tire, Continental adjusts the compound formulation for the specific discipline – for road or mountain biking, time trialling or downhill racing.\u003cbr\u003eHow does that work? For Black Chili Continental refines special synthetic rubbers with proven natural rubber to high-performance tread mixtures. To these mixtures Continental then adds soot particles, which in turn are optimised in shape and surface properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDownhill Casing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDurable and reinforced carcass construction with supple and vivid characteristics\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 layers of carcass material (each with 110 Threads per Inch (TPI)) under the tread for robustness and puncture protection \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 layers of carcass material (each with 110 Threads per Inch (TPI)) in the sidewall for suppleness and adaptivity \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApex for increased snake-bite robustness and support \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoldable Aramid Bead \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTubeless ready bead design for improved sealing \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutstanding sidewall design with unique and distinctive look \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabel design with clear and intuitive symbol approach \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCross woven chafer textile protects the tire and rim area\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSoft Compound\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe balance of grip and rolling resistance for gravity focussed use cases.
