Continental Mud King 1.8 ProTection Folding MTB Tyre

The Continental Mud King MTB Tyre is a wet course option in Continental's DH range, developed in conjunction with Atherton Racing!

Where else would be a better place to develop of mud tyre than in deepest darkest North Wales . The spikey tread pattern combined with Black Chilli compound offers all the necessary grip for when the heavens open. The sidewall features an apex layer, which is a soft elastomer rubber sandwiched between the casing plies to protect against impact damage (ie snakebites etc).

A 1.8 ProTection version compliments our trail tyre range to offer a designated mud option. The Black Chili compound keeps the tyre clean and handles wet roots & rocks and provides a good service life. The narrow profile clears well in the gloop and rolls fast for such a knobbly tyre. Assured cornering is taken care of with a consistant Black Chili shoulder lug pattern.
