Review on ๐Ÿšด Continental Contact Plus Travel Bike Tire: E-Bike Rated, SafetyPlus Puncture Protection for All Terrain Bicycles (26", 28") by Jeremy Gums

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great cyclocross tire

City version shown, not travel version. The Travel has a very smooth mid-profile with semi-circular patterns on the sides. I bought a Travel 700x42 to replace the noisy 700x38 on my cyclocross bike. I was concerned that the 42s would fit snugly in the bottom of the frame, but they are no wider than the 38s I had. They feel a bit bigger and heavier thanks to a thick, flat skid plate and make for a very plush ride (set your bike computer accordingly). Rolling resistance is very low even at 60psi. They are fast! highlighted.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Non-automatic
