Make Punctures a Thing of the Past
Puncture protection and durability are the strengths of Hardshell ProTection. A wider PolyX Breaker, the specialist against punctures, under the tread centre and shoulders provides the brilliant cut and puncture resistance. The three ply (each layer with 60 TPI) casing covers the entire tyre and adds to the genuine protection against urban debris. The outer sidewalls of the tyre are reinforced with DuraSkin fabric, offering further protection and even more reliability. Continental Gator Hardshell tyres are the puncture-resistant flagship amongst racing tyres and are produced exclusively in Germany.

Durable, Fast, Low Rolling Resistance, Great Cornering

The Continental compound ensures low rolling resistance combined with the excellent stickability needed for reliable cornering and braking. They are certainly up for the rigours of the daily commute, many training kilometres, fast lightweight touring, even club racing or sportives.
