The fastest clincher in the world! The Grand Prix Supersonic offers exceptionally low rolling resistance that rivals that of our renowned tubulars. Our super-fine, polyamide casing combined with a thin layer of ASC Silica treads compound is extremely lightweight and is designed to allow unusually high inflation pressures. Possibly one of the best time trail tyres ever designed.
3 carcass plies; 310 tpi
140g
The lightest clincher tyre on the market!
Slick tread & super fine 310 tpi casing
Designed purely for the speed of competition
New all-black tread compound improves durability
 Cycling Plus Review "Billed as the lightest clincher on the market, the Supersonic seems to be jsut that: almost 30g seperates it from its nearest rival. It's also very fast, with a rolling performance that's matched only by Michelin's Pro 2 Light. The price you pay is the tyre having a shorter lifespan - a season, say - and a greater risk of punctures, because there's no protective layer. Continental are up-front about this, recommending it for time-trial use only and adding: "Riders should weigh up the compromises that they are willing to take before selecting this tyre". It's a supple tyre, with a 310tpi casing and Black Chilli carbon added to the rubber. Supersonics are not recommended for your road bike or winter trainer but should certainly be on your short-list for time-trialling."
Conclusion: A very light and very fast tyre - ideal for your time trial bike.
