Our new NyTech puncture protection system is based on Continental's proven SafetySystem braid. The nylon fabric used resists punctures and cuts as much as Kevlar reinforced with high-strength fibers, but provides lower rolling resistance and lower weight. NyTech Braid takes its place between SafetySystem and PolyX Braid as a more effective puncture protection casing in the high-performance sector.

This technology, created from a silica compound, was originally intended for the high-performance market, but after intensive work in our R&D department at our Korbach factory, an advanced new compound was developed with outstanding properties combining grip and off-road capability. This new rubber compound, which has been given the clear name "PureGrip," stands just below BlackChili Compound and is used in performance products in both the road and mountain bike sectors. The compound guarantees great grip, but is also durable and very tough, with all the hallmarks of Continental tires.
