With e-bike certification up to 50 km/h and Continental’s handmade quality, it’s built for reliable, efficient, and safe daily commuting.
Key Features and Benefits:
- SafetyPro Breaker protection layer: A cross-woven nylon fibre net shields the casing from sharp objects. This design reduces punctures from glass or stones while keeping the tyre flexible. The result is maximum protection without added weight.
- Urban-optimised tread pattern: The smooth central band and textured shoulders balance low rolling resistance with secure traction. This ensures efficient performance and confident cornering in varied city conditions.

- E50 e-bike certification: Built to handle speeds up to 50 km/h, this tyre meets S-Pedelec standards. It resists extra torque and wear from electric assistance, ensuring stability and safety at higher speeds.
- Durable casing design: Reinforced sidewalls and inner structure withstand the stress of daily commuting. This improves structural integrity, preventing early wear or deformation.
- Low rolling resistance compound: The advanced rubber formulation minimises energy loss during rotation. This improves efficiency, allowing riders to travel faster with less effort.
- Reflex sidewall strip: A reflective band runs along the tyre’s edge to boost visibility in low light. This feature enhances safety by increasing rider presence in traffic.
- Safety Level 6 rating: Continental’s internal safety scale ranks this tyre among its most protective models. It offers an ideal balance of strength, comfort, and performance for urban riding.

Customer Reviews
(I have a lot of time for Schwalbe's in general, they are bomb proof but in general and this case heavy.)
Delivered on time.
The Conti's were relatively easy to fit, very little need for tyre levers - a more experienced fitter may not have used at all, which was good for me as I still ride tubed and am conscious of the risk of pinching tubes when using levers.
Inflated to 35psi for fit check they came up as a measured 48.5mm, so a little under label size.
One ride so far, dry (other than occasional ice-melt patch and field run-off, cold (-1 to +3 Degrees C), 31psi rear, 30psi front.
Felt the benefit of the lighter tyre on acceleration and up hill, grip felt Ok, only time will tell if puncture resistance is up to snuff.
Post ride inspection indicated a contact patch of central third of tyre width, so the pressures seem ok as a starting point for my 140lbs weight.
Easy to fit which was a nice surprise
