Razors Edge ★ Posted January 31, 2018 Share #1 Posted January 31, 2018 Contis still looking good! I wonder if they will bump up into the wider sizes with the 400 S II - 32 or 35 would be nice. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donkpow Posted January 31, 2018 Share #2 Posted January 31, 2018 Why would you need a racing tire in a wider width? Use one of their performance tires that do come in wider configurations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use one of their performance tires that do come in wider configurations. You (and they, maybe) can call it a "racing" tire, but the 4000S II (oddly shown as "400" by the German site!) is an everyday, most-conditions, performance tire. It rolls fast, has very good puncture resistance, lasts a good while, is a comfortable tire, and basically just performs well. So, for me, I'd just like it in more widths.

Trouble is, Continental has other tires accepted as suitable by most of the riders on the planet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Who would you compete with? All the other tire manufacturers are limiting themselves to 25 mm for high performance tires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
