Continental Kryptotal-R Downhill Super Soft 29" x 2.40 Rear Black Folding Tyre

Grip to push you beyond the limits

Optimised for the rear wheel, this all-round tyre balances stability, grip, braking traction and rolling resistance. Ideal for pushing you through terrain in all conditions.

Features

• SuperSoft compound: the softest and most grippy compound in the Gravity MTB range. Especially for downhill and enduro, where the main objective is to descend at full speed. Tyres with this compound are intended for cyclists who focus 100% on grip, traction and control. Recommended for use cases with a high percentage of downhill.
• Downhill carcass: The strongest and most reinforced carcass structure in the gravity line.
• Tubeless Ready: The carcass structure is robust and resistant to damage and penetration by foreign objects. The result: versatility, reduced weight and attractive design. In addition, tyres made with this technology can also be used as inner tubes.
• E25: also suitable for E-Bikes.

Technologies

BlackChili
The BlackChili compound is produced exclusively at the Continental plant in Korbach, Germany, and combines the latest polymers with carbon black particles and specially developed filler materials. Both cars and bicycles benefit from this technology. Mounted on a bicycle, tyres with BlackChili offer cyclists excellent reliability, whether in downhill races on a mountain bike or in time trials on a racing bike.

Apex
Used successfully for years in car tyres, its transition to bicycle tyres was only a matter of time. A natural rubber profile sandwiched between the carcass layers at the base of the tyre stiffens the sidewalls, minimising tyre torsion due to high transverse loads. Stiffer sidewalls in turn reduce the risk of punctures and prevent the tyre from slipping off the rim. At low pressure, grip is improved without becoming too loose when cornering. The risk of punctures is significantly reduced.
