CONTINENTAL Contact Speed Reflective 26´´ x 2.00 Rigid Urban Tyre

Transform your daily commute and urban adventures with the CONTINENTAL Contact Speed Reflective 26´´ x 2.00 rigid urban tyre. Engineered for the modern city cyclist, this tyre is the perfect fusion of speed, comfort, and uncompromising safety. It is the ideal choice for riders of city bikes, single-speeds, and fitness bikes who demand performance and reliability on paved surfaces.

Unleash Your Speed

At the heart of the Contact Speed´s design is its unique tread profile. The fast-rolling slick center minimizes rolling resistance, allowing you to accelerate quickly and maintain momentum with less effort. This makes your journey faster and more efficient, whether you´re racing to work or enjoying a leisurely ride through the park. The shoulders of the tyre feature a roughened, micro-diamond pattern that provides excellent grip and confident handling when cornering, ensuring you remain in control even on damp or loose urban surfaces. This dynamic combination delivers a fast, yet secure, riding experience.

Unparalleled Safety and Durability

Navigating the urban jungle comes with its hazards, from broken glass to sharp debris. The CONTINENTAL Contact Speed is fortified with the robust Double SafetySystem Breaker. This advanced puncture protection system consists of a dual layer of high-strength nylon fabric, reinforced with Kevlar®, providing exceptional resistance against punctures and cuts. Rated at Continental´s Safety Level 4, you can ride with peace of mind, knowing your tyres are built to withstand the rigors of daily use. For enhanced safety in low-light conditions, a continuous reflective stripe is integrated into the sidewall, dramatically increasing your visibility to traffic from all angles.

Engineered for Comfort and E-Bikes

This tyre isn´t just about speed and safety; it´s also designed for a supremely comfortable ride. The generous 2.00-inch volume provides a substantial air cushion that effectively absorbs road vibrations, smoothing out bumps from potholes, cobblestones, and uneven pavement. The durable 3-layer casing with a 180 TPI (Threads Per Inch) count offers a perfect balance of strength and suppleness. Furthermore, the Contact Speed is officially approved for E-bikes up to 25 km/h, its sturdy construction easily handling the increased weight and torque of electric-assist bicycles.
