Continental GP4000s
Team Fuji Taiwan is sponsored by Continental tires from Germany. We are racing on the new GP4000s. It uses a new compound called Black Chilly. This new compound decreases rolling resistance 26%, increase grip 30% and increase mileage by 5%.
The GP4000s also uses a single layer of VECTRAN breaker instead of 2 layers of kevlar. This makes it lighter and more puncture resistant.
I have used these tires for over 7000km. I find the grip for cornering and descending is incredible. My wheels always feel secure no matter how hard I push it. I could immediately feel the difference when I changed from the regular GP4000 to the new GP4000s. The tires just felt faster and more comfortable.
I highly recommend these tires for racing and fast training.

大家好,
有個問題請教一下,在你們的車隊裡,GP4000s被定位為練習用胎或是競賽用胎????
這胎應該是clincher吧????
謝謝。

練習大部分用 Ultra Race。但實際上「比賽胎」如 GP4000s 或 GP4000 也時常在練習時用。他們的耐度或防爆性能甚至比 Ultra Race 還好。

阿丹兄,
Novatec W1和W2不是管胎輪組嗎????
難道GP4000s有管胎版本????
我在ModusVelo上找不到相關的資料說….
謝謝。

ModusVelo在不久的將來 (i hope) 就會有 GP4000 管胎。
但我們這裡討論的 GP4000, GP4000s 都是 open 胎。
目前隊上用的管胎有 Conti Giro, Sprinter, Competition
