Having achieved legendary status, the Race King heralded the advent of the current Continental 'King' range. Irina Kalentieva won two World Championships on the Race King, as well as countless other wins. When it's dry, the Race King is as fast and provides as much traction as can be asked and rolling resistance rivals that of many road tires. ProTection models are developed and produced in Korbach, Germany with our best materials such as Black Chili compound and they guarantee significantly better rolling resistance and puncture protection as a result.
