Harden Up!
Posted in Bicycles on February 1st, 2010 by adminIntroducing Continental’s new tough-as-nails tyre; the Gator Hardshell.
The new tyre offers a triple ply casing on top of Continental’s tried and tested DuraSkin protection layer. What sets the Hardshell apart from other tyres is the way carcass is folded. The triple ply runs all the way from bead-to-bead! Offering awesome protection from punctures even on the sidewall.
The Hardshell also retains the long-hard wearing rubber compound from the UltraGators, that all up makes for a great tyre for any ride, whether you are training, or commuting. And if you want to run it as a “skid tyre” for the back of your fixie: yes, the Conti’s are one of the longest wearing tyres you could run.
