Continental GP Force Comp Tubular Tyre features

Quality

Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Tyres. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Continental GP Force Comp Tubular Tyre.

The first thing is material. Looking at what Continental GP Force Comp Tubular Tyre is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.

Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Tyres. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.

There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Tyres. Brands like Continental are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.

Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Tyres category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.

Comparing Prices

Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for.

Continental GP Force Comp Tubular Tyre Reviews

Reading reviews is an amazing way of getting a good feel for a product without actually being able to try it or see it first.

There are two different types of reviews, and we also recommend reading both.

1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.

2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information. There’s no finances or influence involved, they’re purely just honest reviews from customers that have bought and used the product. The reason we love customer reviews so much is because no matter if their view is good or bad, there’s a very good chance that it will be honest and unbiased.

Our best advice is to head over to Chain Reaction Cycles and read the Continental GP Force Comp Tubular Tyre reviews there.

Based on what we’ve seen in terms of reviews for Continental GP Force Comp Tubular Tyre, it really does look like a great buy. So for the review score, we’ve scored it 8.9 out of 10. The average review score for all products in the Tyres category at Chain Reaction Cycles is 4.3 out of 5.

• Description: Continental GP Force Comp Tubular TyreThis tubular tyre has been designed to pair (as the rear tyre) with Continental’s Attack Comp tubular tyre. With its wide 24mm contact area and semi-slick treat pattern, the GP Force is a powerhouse with remarkable grip and low rolling resistance. Plus, with a higher service mileage and impressive comfort thanks to its wide casing, this tyre is a perfect match for the stiffer racing bikes of today.Features: TPI: 180 PSI rating: 115-170 Perfect partner is the Attack Comp tubular tyre (front) ISO: 24-622 (700 x 24c) Weight:¬†260gTechnologies: BlackChili Compound: Continental refines newly developed synthetic rubbers with natural rubber with the proven high-performance tread compound. The GP4000S II uses these rubbers with special nanometric carbon soot particles, which are optimised in shape and surface properties for best uses for the intended tyre. Tyres with BlackChili Compound reach an unprecedented level of performance. Compared to the previous best Activated Silica Compound, BlackChili tyres have 26% less rolling resistance, a 30% higher friction value (grip) and a 5% increase in mileage. Vectran Breaker:¬†Vectran is a synthetically manufactured high-tech fibre from a natural model. Like spider silk, Vectran is a liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) and is spun from the melted liquid polymer Vectra and processed further to a multi-strand thread. Vectran has an enormous tear resistance at a very low weight: Exactly the right properties to process into a premium Continental bicycle tyre as a puncture protection insert. A Vectran Breaker is lighter, more flexible and protects more effectively against cuts than the comparable nylon breaker. Vectran Breaker does not adversely affect the rolling resistance. TyrePositioning System (TPS): The narrower front tyre (23mm) provides reduced wind resistance and better handling. An adhesion-optimised tread mixture supplies the necessary grip especially for wet cornering. The wider rear tyre (25mm) offers better traction thanks to a larger contact area and at the same time more comfort. Thanks to the fast rolling, optimised tread mixture and larger contact area on the rear tyre, wear is reduced. The result is a pioneering front and rear tyre system for road racing – to be found in Conti’s GP Attack and Force tyres/tubs.Buy Continental Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
