Continental Gatorskin PolyX 700x25 tire

Ride wherever you want: Continental's undisputed number one for fixie riders, messengers, and urban bikers
The foldable GatorSkin tire is the right tire for the urban jungle. It gives every everyday rider that certain something and reliably gets commuters to work.
The puncture-resistant PolyX Breaker is located directly under the tread, providing excellent protection against punctures. Additionally, DuraSkin makes the sidewall resistant to curbs and other urban hazards. The tread compound used allows for an exceptionally long lifespan.

Tire Technologies

PolyX
With the PolyX Breaker, Continental brings automotive expertise to the bicycle tire segment: polyester has been successfully used in car tires for years and has proven itself many times. The extremely durable polyester fiber is tightly woven crosswise. This results in a very high fabric density, making the Breaker not only resistant to foreign objects but also particularly puncture-resistant. Rolling resistance is also not negatively affected by the PolyX Breaker.

DuraSkin
Tires with DuraSkin sidewall protection must be able to take hits. They are used in the harshest conditions. On messenger bikes, tires slide over curbs; on touring bikes, they cross continents without wearing out; in races, they must pass endurance tests like Paris-Roubaix. The high-quality polyamide fabric reliably protects the tire sidewall and arms it for the extreme. These tires stand out from the crowd thanks to their brown sidewall.
