Until the development of the GP4000 S Tyre, this - the GP4000 - was the star of Continental's range. Unlike the GP4000 S Tyre, it does not use the adhesive black chilli compound.

Nevertheless, it is still an excellent tyre, and whereas the GP4000 S is available in black only, the GP4000 is available in a variety of colours, allowing you to complement your bike.

Key Features of the Continental GP4000 Tyre:

• High performance, all conditions road race tyre which works well on all road surfaces
• ASC Silica compound offers low rolling resistance and light weight to ensure a fast and supple ride, with excellent feedback and grip
• Outstanding puncture resistance due to the Vectran breaker belt
• The first road race tyre to include Vectran, which makes the GP4000 tougher and lighter than its predecessor, the GP3000
• Vectran offers more resistance to cuts than Aramid, is five times as strong as steel, and is lighter than a nylon Double breaker belt
• An anti-cracking formula prevents UV damage, and increases lifespan
• Wear indicators help gauge the life of the tyre
• Weight: 210 grams
