Vectran breaker
The benchmark in puncture protection for performance tyres
Vectran is a synthetically manufactured high-tech fibre from a natural model. Vectran has an enormous tear resistance at a very low weight: Exactly the right properties to process into a premium Continental bicycle tyre, such as the Grand Prix 5000 as a puncture protection insert. A Vectran Breaker is lighter, more flexible and protects more effectively against cuts than the comparable nylon breaker. Vectran Breaker does not adversely affect the rolling resistance.
Fit the GP 4Season or Top Contact for the ultimate 'under the tread' Vectran protection as they both feature 2 x Vectran layers.
