Time-trial construction with latex tube

An even faster time-trial tubular thanks to a more delicate carcass, with a latex inner tube for excellent acceleration and a smooth central tread, per Continental. Continental asks riders to consider the special attributes of latex tubes.

BlackChili Compound

Continental’s signature tread compound and its answer to the balance between grip and rolling resistance. Continental says the latest polymers, specially developed carbon-black particles and filler materials give it its performance on road, gravel and mountain-bike tyres, from time trials to downhill.

Vectran Breaker

Vectran Breaker

A breaker spun from liquid-crystal polymer into a thermoplastic multi-thread yarn. Continental says the fabric is more cut-resistant than aramid with five times the tensile strength of steel, and that a Vectran breaker is lighter, more flexible and better against cuts than a comparable nylon breaker — without affecting rolling resistance.

Frequently asked questions

Answered from this product’s published information. Questions about orders or anything else go to our team.

Competition TT or Competition?

Both are BlackChili tubulars with a Vectran Breaker on a 180 TPI casing. The Competition TT is Continental’s even faster time-trial version: a more delicate carcass, a latex inner tube for excellent acceleration and a smooth central tread — 205 g in 28x25 against 280 g for the Competition (Continental). Continental asks you to consider the special attributes of latex tubes. For all-round racing and training, the Competition.

Competition or Sprinter tubular?

Both use BlackChili on a 180 TPI casing. The Competition has a Vectran Breaker and is Continental’s classic all-rounder, which it says appears at the sharp end of all the major races and adapts to all road conditions; the Sprinter has a SafetySystem Breaker and a neutral slick profile for criteriums and triathlon. Claimed weights in 700x25: 280 g Competition, 290 g Sprinter (Continental).
