|  | | | | Continental Grand Prix 4000 700The Continental Grand Prix 4000 is the star in the peloton.
For the GP4000 tyres, the activated silica compound improves the handling at stability limits and gives great rolling resistance. The anti-tear formula in the rubber compound prevents tread brittleness while increasing mileage performance. The extra special thing about the GP 4000 is the puncture protection made from Vectran™ liquid crystal fibres. The patented Vectran Breaker reconciles the conflicting goals of low weight, low rolling resistance and top puncture and cut resistance in a fascinating manner. The Vectran™ fluid crystal fibres were developed for airbag systems in the automotive and aerospace industries.
It also maintains strength in the wet.
A new anti-cracking formula prevents UV light from damaging the compound and increases the mileage performance.
Features new tread wear indicators to help riders gauge the life of their GP4000 tyre. On the one hand you don't lose mileage performance by prematurely replacing the tyre and on the other you don't risk safety by using the tyre beyond its tread service life - The successor to the highly popular Grand Prix 3000
