Continental Trail King Mountain Bike Tire - Clincher, Wire, Black

Excellent tyre for the price

Quite simply the best tyre I've ever bought. Not failed me once and grips like nothing I've ever used before. The only issue I found was it wasn't easy to get on the rim, but suspect that is because the inner rim is strong. Holds air very well.

Great tyre, exactly what I wanted

Great tyre

The tyre itself seems like the usual great quality from Continental, however I was really disappointed to see how little depth of tread you get compared to the old Continental "Vertical Protection" tyres I used to use. I suspect this will make them more prone to punctures from day one as the lower the tread depth the easier I have found tyres puncture from glass & thorns, as well as the obvious fact that they will have less lifespan between replacements 🧐

First class product

27.5 cross king continental tyer boss for bike amazing came way early thanks 😊

These make your ride bumpy as hell. I’ve spent hours trying to get them seated properly so I don’t get that constant bump, but no luck. I even tried different inner tubes thinking maybe they were to blame — made absolutely no difference. It’s the same with both tyres, front and back. I only ordered them because I could get next-day delivery and we were going away for a weekend ride. My old tyres had picked up loads of thorns, so I needed replacements quickly. I honestly wish I’d never bought these. God knows where all the positive feedback is coming from. Either you lot only ride off-road trails or are absolutely clueless how a bike should feel 😂 On asphalt or any smooth surface the ride is horrendous — constant bumping and my arse definitely doesn’t appreciate it. On forest tracks and off-road they’re actually fine because you don’t notice it. And before anyone says it: yes, my wheels are straight, no buckles; yes, I aligned the tyre wall/seating line with the rim; and yes, the pressure is within spec. I’ve reseated them multiple times and tried different tubes. Grip is actually good and I haven’t had a puncture with them, so they’re not all bad. But the ride quality on smooth surfaces completely ruins them for me.These make your ride bumpy as hell.

I copertoni sono ottimi. Ho visto che qualcuno ha messo il video delle ruote che correndo vibrano. Innanzitutto io li ho montati con il sapone per farli aderire bene al cerchio, poi li ho gonfiati fino a 3,5 bar di pressione per farli aderire ancora meglio al cerchio, percependo dei colpi di assestamento (come quando cambi i copertoni delle auto per capirci). Ovviamente poi li ho sgonfiati fino a 1,9/2,0 bar.

Super Qualität, wie erwartet.

Super pneu, il evacue très bien la boue en forêt et permet un bon maintien grâce à ses crampons sur les côtés…. De préférence monté à l’avant pour maintenir une bonne direction, évitant les glissades et perte d’adhérence…

Buen producto

Mi trovo bene, è il secondo paio è non sarà l ultimo. Detto questo...ho visto recensioni negative perché si dice girino male e storti. Forse perché vengono montati in modo improprio. È importante che durante il montaggio le due spalle (dx e sx) del copertone vengano ben spennellate con acqua e detersivo per i piatti mischiati insieme. Se non si fa questo c'è il rischio che durante il primo gonfiaggio dello pneumatico il medesimo non si adatti e non aderisca perfettamente come dovrebbe al canale interno del cerchio. Commettevo anche io il medesimo errore prima che un amico me lo facesse notare.
