2011 Continental Competition Tire - 22 Tubular

Vectran isnÆt a sci-fi character and Eric ZabelÆs not joking when he says, æhot tires!Æ in reference to ContinentalÆs Competition Tubular Road Bike Tires. Sewn by little old ladies in Korbach, Germany, the Competition uses Vectran Technologyùa liquid crystal polymer that prevents punctures--so you donÆt have a day like Cadel Evans in the Æ09 Veulta. The tires contain silica compound in the rubber, so when itÆs raining cats and dogs your wheels remain stuck to the pavement.
