Created for urban riders who want confidence to commute, shop, and explore. A cutting-edge combination of Vectran and PolyX breaker technologies take protection to a whole new level, alongside more sustainable manufacturing using responsibly sourced rubber and more natural materials.
Vectran Breaker, Continental's high-quality racing tire technology, meets PolyX Breaker technology, which has proven to be extremely effective in car tires for years. The combination provides the best puncture protection in Continental's portfolio. These tires feature a lightweight construction with foldable aramid beads. A set of Pure Contact saves approximately 700g compared to a set of e.CONTACT Plus.
Pure Contact is the ideal intersection of fast rolling and traction in wet and dry. A combination of premium compound and drainage elements, the Pure Contact is one of Continental's grippiest tires in their Urban/Tour portfolio. The design features a mix of symmetrical, a redefined center area with redesigned repeating drainage elements, and a transition area equipped with a slat design. Continuous improvement of mileage, wear rate, puncture protection and rolling resistance are key factors for extending tire life.
Continental's path to sustainability: created from one-third sustainable materials - silicate from the ash of rice husks, responsibly sourced natural rubber and renewable softener, engineered into one of their high performing tires. Continental is a founding member of the Global Platform for Sustainable Natural Rubber (GPSNR).
