KORBACH, Germany (BRAIN) — Continental announced the return of the cream sidewall Grand Prix 5000 road tire to celebrate the Tour de France last month. It joins the transparent sidewall and traditional black tires to form a new color range.
Initially available as a special edition for the Tour de France 2020, Continental has responded to customer demand for the cream wall color by making it a permanent feature in the expanding Grand Prix 5000 lineup.
The new range is designed to offer more aesthetic choice for road riders and racers.
The Grand Prix 5000 line features Active Comfort Technology to reduce vibration, Vectran Breaker for puncture protection, and LazerGrip for cornering. Continental's Black Chili compound balances grip, mileage, and low-rolling resistance.
