Continental Terra Trail Performance ShieldWall 622-40 (700x40) Tire

The community of Gravel fans is growing in our countries. It's just fun to be fast and comfortable on gravel or forest highways. Continental offers you the perfect tire for your off-piste adventure.
The many nubs are slightly higher than in the Speed variant and together with the BlackChili compound ensure excellent grip on almost any surface. In addition, they were pulled high on the side flank to create a better grip in turns. They are arranged in such a way that the rolling resistance is low and you can get ahead at any time without having to exhaust yourself completely. You do not have to be afraid of breakdowns. The ProTection insert and the ability to run tubeless reduce the risk of a tire plate to a minimum. You can just enjoy your tour.

BlackChili Compound
Above all, BlackChili at Continental means that grip, rolling resistance and durability are combined at a high level. You can almost believe in magic. At the same time, Continental simply uses the very latest and best technologies. Polymers, soot particles optimized to the nano range, and fillers guarantee the unique performance of the BlackChili compound. He revolutionized the basic conflict between grip and rolling resistance. Approximately 30% more grip and a 26% improvement in rolling resistance over a silica blend for greater performance and safety.
Continental tires are made entirely from this high-quality rubber compound. Thus, they can be driven down to the carcass without losing the first-class properties of this material.

ProTection
The ProTection technology gives the tire perfect puncture protection. It is achieved by a continuous additional layer, which increases the resistance to injury of any kind. However, this does not diminish the good rolling properties of Continental tires.
