Black Chilli
It's all about how you mix it!
With our unique tread compound, which is produced only in Germany, we have revolutionised the sport of cycling. With the legendary BlackChili Compound we have answered the eternal question of the best balance of grip and rolling resistance for cycling.
Regular test wins confirm the measureable and noticeable advantages for the cyclist, established in the laboratory and on the road. The latest polymers as well as specially developed carbon black particles and filler materials guarantee unique performance

Active Comfort
The revolutionary approach in cycling. Embedded in the tyre construction the Active Comfort Technology absorbs vibrations and smoothens your ride.

Lazer Grip
To make you one with the road. The lazered micro profile structure expands over the tyre's shoulder and provides outstanding cornering.

Vectran Breaker
The benchmark in puncture protection
Vectran is a synthetically manufactured high-tech fibre from a natural model. Like spider silk, Vectran is a liquid-crystalline polymer (LCP). Vectran is spun from the melted liquid polymer Vectra and processed further to a multi-strand thread. Spider silk, like Vectran, has an enormous tear resistance at a very low weight. Exactly the right properties to process into a premium Continental bicycle tyre 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.
There are a multitude of options when it comes to tyre selection. Some people have their particular favourite that they stick to while others like to try different tyres out. Some are for racing and competition type events and other tyres are made for the budget conscious plodder. These GP5000 tyres are just one of a great selection to be found at Wollongong Bike Hub and Wilson's Bike Hub Albion Park Rail. We can help you find the right tyre for your needs and budget.
