8 Continental AG Business Unit Two Wheel Podium TT The time machine. TT stands for time trial. Entire tours are decided in the fight against the clock. This is reason enough to offer particularly fast tyres. While it was conceived as a time trial tyre, the Podium TT is also very popular with professionals for normalraces. The reason for this is its construction. Thanks to the latest Black Chili Compound, this chrono specialist, availablein 19 mm and 22 mm width, is not only super fast, but its VectranBreaker offers excellent puncture prevention. In addition, the 22 mm width version of the Podium is lightweight at only 205 g. A low weight means low rotation energy. The thickness of the tread was reduced to 0.7 mm, which is still enough for a few tough race days. The ultrafast slick tread shows how fast it really is even when it’s not moving.

The Grand Prix TT is in the same category as the Podium TT Tubular: A real TimeTrial Tire with limited mileage and extreme performance. The purpose of this tire is immediately apparent. The smooth center saves the last seconds, and the roughened shoulders provide grip in curves. Thanks to the reduced tread and BlackChili compound, this tire is ultra – lightweight and unbelievably fast. Also featuring a Vectran® breaker for puncture protection. The new TimeTrial Weapon - Made in Germany. Technology: 3 / 330 tpi Vectran Breaker BlackChiliCompound 180gr Reduced Mileage Limited
