Full Benchmark Test Review Download
In the course of the development of the new CONTACT Plus, a total of nine tyres has been compared with a competitor’s tyre model in a susceptibility to piercing (blade) test. The Zedler Institute (Zedler – Institut für Fahrradtechnik und -Sicherheit GmbH, Teinacher Straße 51, D-71634 Ludwigsburg. Testing on 16.12.2016) underlined that the CONTACT Plus would perform „distinctly more resistant” against the damages by pieces of glass and comparable items than the competitor’s tyre.
Tyres in the sizes 47-622 (competitor 47-622), 47-559 (47-559) and 42-622 (40-622) were tested. The weight of the tyres was similar within the ETRTO sizes with both manufacturers. The testing was carried out and monitored by the neutral Zedler Institute. In addition to the regular manufacturer information the Continental tyres were uniquely identified by their technical and release documents.
The piercing tests were conducted at temperatures between 20.5 and 21.8 degrees Celsius. All measurements were executed three times on each test specimen, respectively at different spots. The tests were performed at a constant test velocity of 100 mm/min.As the probing device a blade of five millimeters width, whetted on both sides at an angle of 40 degrees was used. This simulates penetrations by foreign bodies such as sharps or sharp stones.
On an average, the CONTACT Plus was convincing with up to 30% higher puncture protection than the competitor’s comparable tyres.
The piercing power of the blade with the competitor’s test specimens was on average 6% to 23% lower across all sizes than with the comparable specimens of the CONTACT Plus. Please find the individual measurements also in the respective overview on this page.

Hannover, Germany. Continental has been developing and manufacturing bicycle tyres since 1892. Those early, so-called "pneumatics", which were much more comfortable and had less rolling resistance than the rim-mounted leather or iron bands used before them, have since been transformed into truly high-tech products.
Today's product lines offered by Continental are built to satisfy the demands of touring cyclists, mountain bikers and racing professionals – indeed, the leading teams of this year's Tour de France rode on tyres made by the company's plant in Korbach (Hesse).
Continental is the only bicycle tyre producer with manufacturing operations in Germany.Tyres - also those for bicycles - consist of different components that are 'baked' under heat and pressure during the vulcanization process to form the finished rubber product. Crude rubber is the essential base material and is mixed together with carbon black , sulfur, accelerators, antioxidants, dyes, waxes and oils. The various tyre components are then made out of this mixture together with reinforcing materials like Kevlar and steel wire. Nowadays, more modern materials, such as silica, are included to provide better adhesion on wet surfaces and a lower rolling resistance.
Since the early times of bicycle tyre production, cyclists have had mainly one cause for concern: their tyres should be resistant above all to stone penetration and punctures. Modern tyres, like the CONTACT Plus tyre from Continental, feature a specially re-inforced puncture-proof layer beneath the tread which is capable of even stopping sharp urban detritus. Despite this extra puncture protection, CONTACT Plus is barely heavier than a normal tourer/commuter tyre. Modern-day bicycle tyres are technologically sophisticated products designed to cater for different biking habits and different types of bicycles.
Continental has engineered its MTB tyre range to fit tubeless and standard rims. Tubeless fitment is hassle free with no compressor inflation required. All Continental MTB tyres are now certified for use on Electric Mountain Bikes (E-25). With five build options and three diametre choices (26", 27.5", 29"), the Continental range covers every requirement, from >1kg downhill tyres to lightweight cross-country options. The addition of 2.6 & 2.8 tread sizes gives further choice for B+ riders. Owners of urban/commuter bikes and racers can also choose from a wide spectrum of tyres, including tubless and tubular options. What's more, for the modern harsh winters in northern europe, there's also a studded winter tyre series for both trekking and mountain bikes.Continental AG is a leading supplier of tyres, brake systems, chassis components and industrial elastomers.Marketing Service International
