The Continental ContiTwist summer tire is extremely popular among owners of new motorcycles and scooters. This model is a great example of the optimal combination of excellent performance characteristics and low cost. When developing this tire, the manufacturer focused on speed characteristics and increased mileage. After production, the tire undergoes rigorous quality control, preventing the possibility of defective batches reaching the consumer. At the same time, the model has shown excellent driving qualities on any road surface.
Optimized tread design
The Continental ContiTwist tread was created using computer modeling. This allowed for the optimal placement of channels across the entire surface of the tire. They have an unusual shape and varying depth, which ensures rapid water removal from the contact zone, preventing possible aquaplaning. In addition, a new side zone design was used, which provided increased stability during various maneuvers. The new tread pattern provides excellent driving qualities and maximum safety when driving at any speed.
Elastic rubber compound
To ensure excellent speed characteristics, it is necessary to achieve increased elasticity of the tread. Therefore, when creating the rubber mixture, a large amount of silica was used. Due to this, the tread has increased elasticity, providing increased traction with any road surface and fast recovery properties. Also, the new rubber mixture allowed increasing the mileage of the tire, due to the use of new components that increase the wear resistance of the rubber. The new rubber mixture has improved the speed parameters of the tire and reduced the braking distance.
Even at maximum speed, this model provides confident handling and increased safety. At the same time, it meets all world standards for environmental friendliness and quality.
