Continental Competition Pro LTD – All-round Tubular Tire – 22 Mm

Brand new Continental Competition Pro LTD – all-round tubular tire.

This particular tubular tire is the extremely rare Pro Limited version. This is a special version only supplied to sponsored pro teams, and they are normally not available in public cycling stores. This edition is the all-round diamond pattern with competition tread, which is the most all-round tire of the Pro LTD series.

Pro Limited is considered as the holy grail of tubular tires, and even teams who are not sponsored by Continental, sometimes use them in an unbranded version for the most important races.

The main difference between the regular competition tubular and the Pro LTD is that this tubular features a latex inner-tube, which makes the tire even lighter and improves grip and puncture resistance.

This edition is the most ‘all-round’ version used for most regular road races, where weight and puncture resistance is in perfect balance.

These all-round tubular tires have been aged in storage for a pro team for several years, so they are therefore ready to race. This is a process that pro teams use because it improves the resistance of the tires to punctures by making the rubber drier and therefore less able to pick up small rocks from the road.
