Continental Grand Prix 4 Season 28" Folding Tyre
Reliable all-season tyres for frequent riders: the Grand Prix 4 Season Tyres by Continental
Thanks to its DuraSkin fabric, the Grand Prix 4 Season is capable of withstanding extreme loads. At the Paris-Roubaix race, the so-called " hell of the north" , drivers equipped with Continental DuraSkin report by far the least amount of tyre damage. This GP tyre stands out thanks to its very high mileage, with excellent grip on wet roads even at lower temperatures. With 23 mm, 25 mm, 28 mm and 32 mm options, the Grand Prix 4-Season can be adjusted to meet a wide variety of road demands and comfort requirements. Double Vectran™Breaker increases puncture and slash protection by the highest values currently on the market.

Technology:
PremiumThe Continental Premium tyres have been designed to deliver top performance. They are equipped with the latest technologies, which have been developed together with the most successful athletes in the world. They are handmade by the experienced specialists in Korbach (Germany). Added to this are selected materials for the highest quality and outstanding properties.
DuraSkin
Tyres with DuraSkin sidewall protection must be able to plug in properly, as they are used under the most adverse conditions. On messenger bikes, the tyres slide along curbs; on touring bikes, they cross entire continents without wearing out; in racing, they have to prove themselves in competitions such as the Paris-Roubaix . High-quality polyamide fabric provides additional support for the sidewall, making the tyre ready for extreme sports. Tyres with DuraSkin® are immediately recognisable by the brown colour of their sidewalls.
Vectran™Breaker
Vectran™ is a synthetic high-tech fibre with its origins based in nature. Like spider silk, Vectran™ is a liquid crystalline polymer (LCP). Vectran™ is spun from the molten liquid polymer Vectra and further processed into a multi-fibre yarn. Spider silk as well as Vectran™ have enormous tensile strength at a very low weight.
Vectran™ was developed to be used across a wide array of applications: Astronaut tethers, boat sails, deep-sea cables, tear-resistant clothing. Vectran™ can be found wherever extreme durability is required. Vectran™ fibres have a tensile strength five times higher than steel, are fatigue-resistant and extremely hard wearing. These are all the right qualities to look for in puncture protection for a Continental performance tyre.
A Vectran™Breaker is lighter, more flexible and protects more effectively against slashes than comparable nylon breakers. The Vectran™Breaker does not at all impact they tyre's rolling resistance.
