The Continental ContiEscape summer tire is designed for motorcycles. It has proven itself perfectly on any road surface. During its development, great attention was paid to the tread pattern, which allowed to achieve excellent grip and confident handling on any road surface. This tire implements the latest technical achievements and solutions that this manufacturer is famous for. This model is perfect for both city and country roads.
The Continental ContiEscape is designed as a versatile tire for both off-road conditions and city roads. It has proven itself excellently on any road surface and shows excellent performance in various weather conditions on a wide range of surfaces. In addition, the manufacturer recommends this model for tourism, because it has sufficient durability for this.
The tire moves confidently both on asphalt and on country roads, meeting all the requirements of modern motor owners.
The improved rubber compound has a positive effect on the handling properties of the tire. The tire has become more elastic, resulting in improved traction. Other components made the rubber more resistant to abrasion, which increased the life of the model.
Large tread blocks are equipped with sharp edges. This makes the tire more stable on any surface, which is especially important in the rain. Wide and deep drainage channels quickly remove not only water but also dirt from the running area, so that the occurrence of the aquaplaning effect is excluded. The well-thought-out arrangement of the blocks contributes to an increase in the contact patch. The increased shoulder area has a positive effect on the bike's grip when leaning, making it safer to maneuver at high speeds.
Such special qualities of the tire were achieved through the use of computer modeling of the tread pattern, high-tech solutions in the development of the composition of the rubber compound and strengthening the structure. The somewhat aggressive tread pattern consists of a set of quadrilateral blocks of several sizes that form transverse rows of highly elongated U-shaped lines.
This creates long chains of clutch edges in the lateral areas. Taken together, it provides increased grip on the road surface, including at large motorcycle lean angles. The composition of the rubber compound includes a number of new components that increase its elasticity, wear resistance and fast recovery properties.
These qualities, coupled with an optimally calculated tread pattern, we’re able to provide the tire with excellent handling on straight sections and during maneuvers at high speeds, a large contact patch, and the peculiar sharp edges of the tread blocks significantly increase grip on the road surface even in turns. The multiple grooves in the tread pattern provide an excellent drainage system that effectively removes water and dirt from the contact area, thereby increasing grip on wet surfaces and the tire's resistance to aquaplaning. An excellent choice for those who do not like restrictions on road conditions and weather.
Modern rubber compound
The rubber compound includes many new components to enhance the ride quality of the Continental ContiEscape tread. At the same time, the elasticity of the rubber has increased, which provides increased grip on wet road surfaces. Also, the tread has received fast restoring properties, providing increased ride comfort. The increased content of wear-resistant components increased the tread life.
Aggressive tread design
To obtain the optimal arrangement of the blocks, the method of computer simulation was used. Due to this, it was possible to achieve excellent control and increased stability. The tread blocks have an unusual shape with sharp edges. Due to this, adhesion to various surfaces is increased.
The optimal placement of these blocks provides an increased contact patch at any tilt of the motorcycle. This ensures excellent control in all maneuvers. The wider shoulder area allows for increased traction when the motorcycle is tilted, increasing the safety of driving at high speeds. Deep channels between blocks quickly remove dirt and water from the contact area, preventing possible aquaplaning.
This tire has proven itself in a variety of driving styles, providing precise handling, excellent grip, and increased speed performance.
