Continental

Mountain King Mountain Bike Tire

The Continental Mountain King Tires provide big volume and big grip for fast, dry terrain, and a Supersonic version that does it all with insanely low weight. Continental made the Mountain King for the arid Rocky Mountain region, where huge center knobs play a less essential role than huge air volume and cornering prowess. The Mountain King comes in a Protection version with Conti's famous Duraskin and a lightweight Supersonic version that tips the scales at an astonishing 550 grams in 2.4 diameter. There's also a 2.2 for the skinny-tire East Coast riders out there. Word to the wise: if going huge and/or maching rock gardens is your deal, steer towards the heavier versions of these tires.
