The
Grand Prix 3000 is Continental's first road tire to incorporate ASC®
technology.
We have tested Activated Silica Compound to provide 30% better dry
weather traction and 15% lower rolling
resistance than that of our world famous Grand Prix, with zero detriment
to wet weather traction. A
new, ultra fine, five-ply casing of Continental’s proprietary Polyamide
nylon further reduces overall tyre weight for faster acceleration and a
smoother ride. A protective
layer of natural rubber covers the entire sidewall ensuring improved scuff
resistance.

| Since our first review
in March 2002, we’ve ridden the GP3000 on many stock bikes, and each
time we have known we were in safe hands. In this tyre, Conti has come
up with perhaps the ultimate all-rounder. It is no surprise that with
most tyres you get what you pay for, but the GP3000 is the exception
to the rule and offers more than it’s peers. As pointed out in the
first test, to get the best out of them you need to make sure they are
inflated to the maximum. In dry conditions the tyres are certainly
good, giving reliable cornering, even over rough or undulating bitumen
– and at this level many opponents get close, until the wet stuff.
When riding on wet roads, the tyres maintain excellent levels of grip,
while also offering superb protection against flats and the dreaded
mini pump. Top class rubber and no mistake. |
