Description
Eliminate compromise in your race tire.
The Grand Prix 4000 is Continental's most advanced racing clincher, with a truly unique blend of speed and durability. Thanks a bevy of exclusive high tech materials, and years of testing and development, the GP4000 manages to preserve its low rolling resistance and great handling while providing exceptional puncture protection and higher mileage performance than a typical race tire.
There are essentially two separate versions -- those with colored tread which use an activated silica rubber compound, and those with black tread which use the Black Chili rubber compound.
The colored activated silica rubber gives great rolling resistance and lively handling, while the special Xirallic pigmentation process ensures vibrant hues mile after mile and a perfect match to any paint scheme. An additional anti-tear formula has also been added for wear resistance and longevity of tread life.
The Black Chili Rubber features an ultra dense construction and even higher silica content for outstanding grip and blazing speeds. This cutting-edge compound is also optimized for reliability and longevity, making it a great choice when performance and durability are top priority.
