evo.com | Continental Tires > Road warriors know there's no such thing as being too aerodynamic. The Continental Aero 111 Tubeless Tire is engineered with a drag-reducing tread pattern featuring 48 precision-formed vortex generators that manipulate airflow around the tire. Beneath this aerodynamic wizardry lies the same Black Chili compound and Vectran Breaker technology that made the GP5000 legendary, delivering superiour puncture protection and gecko-like grip. Aerodynamics By Swiss Side Swiss Side are the industry leader in aero-dynamics. With over 20 years of experience in both Formula 1 and cycling, they are renowned for utilising the latest technologies and methodologies in computational aerodynamics and real-world testing. Tubeless Ready Continental's carcass construction is robust and impervious against damage and penetration from foreign objects. The result: versatile, low weight and an attractive design. In addition, tires made using this technology can also be used as tubeless or with an inner tube. Vortex Generators The aero-optimized tread pattern certainly looks different: 48 little cavities are regularly distributed over its surface. These so-called 'vortex generators' are the very feature that manage to control the turbulence in the airflow on the surface of the front wheel. Ultimately, this results in a perfected storm that allows for the reduction of drag of the entire wheel tire system. Vectran Breaker Vectran(TM) is a synthetically manufactured high-tech fiber from a natural model. Like spider silk, Vectran(TM) is a liquid-crystalline polymer (LCP). Vectran(TM) is spun from the melted liquid polymer Vectra and processed further to a multi-strand thread. A Vectran(TM) Breaker is lighter, more flexible and protects more effectively against cuts than the comparable nylon breaker. Black Chili Compound A new relationship between grip and rolling resistance. This unique tread rubber mixture which is only produced in Continental's German factory has revolutionized bicycle tires. BlackChili Compound improves rolling resistance by 26 % and provides 30 % more grip than activated silica compounds. Premium tires with BlackChili Compound also impress with higher mileage and unlike many multi-compounds, provide a constant ride from the first to the last mile. | Continental Aero 111 Tubeless Tire 700c 2026 - 700x29c | Nylon/Rubber/Silk
