ContinentalDouble Fighter III 29" Urban Tire(Return to Product Page)

I bought my Marin DSX2 for everyday transportation. It came with 700c x 45s, for the first tire change I mounted these. They completely changed the character of the bicycle. They roll easily, soak up nasty bumps, and work well both on pavement and the dirt trails that are part of my daily travels. However they are more prone to punctures than the road tires on my old Trek hybrid. I am using puncture-resistant strips inside the tires, and tubes with sealant; with these the incidence of flats is greatly reduced.

Removed stock super aggressive mud tire from my mountain bike . Place these Contis on since I'm mostly on roads during east coast winter . Faster smoother ride , and there still enough side grip for unpaved trails.

Perfect upgrade to transform my mountain bike to my winter cruiser / cold weather fitness bike .

These tires are built to last. The are rugged to handle off road yet agile to handle paved road with out feeling bulky.
