Race King ShieldWall Tyre
When speed is the only metric that matters, the Continental Race King ShieldWall is the undisputed choice for cross-country and marathon racing. Designed to fly over hardpack trails and dry forest floors, this tyre combines a low-profile tread with robust protection, making it a favourite for riders who want to turn every watt of power into forward momentum.
Key Features:
- PureGrip Compound: Based on activated silica compounds, this technology provides excellent grip and durability, ensuring you stay glued to the track through technical sections without sacrificing rolling speed.
- ShieldWall System: A high-performance puncture protection layer that wraps the entire tyre. This fine-mesh fabric offers high resistance to punctures and cuts while maintaining the flexibility needed for a supple ride.
- Low-Profile Tread: The shallow, densely packed central lugs are optimised for minimal rolling resistance, while the outer knobs provide just enough bite for confident cornering on fast-rolling terrain.
- Tubeless Ready: Featuring a refined bead design for quick and easy sealing, allowing you to run lower pressures for increased comfort and traction on those bumpy bridleways.
- Race-Proven Geometry: A classic XC tyre profile that has seen podiums worldwide, now available in a robust package that doesn't shy away from the occasional rocky shortcut.
Perfect for everything from the local evening XC loop to long-distance adventure racing. If your goal is to cover ground as fast as humanly possible, the Race King ShieldWall is ready to take the crown.
