Continental CONTACT Plus 700c Tyre - Black

The SafetyPlus construction provides a high level of resistance to punctures and cuts, making the tire very durable and reliable for touring and e-bike use.

While it offers good rolling efficiency for its class, its primary focus is durability and puncture protection, making it more suited for commuting, touring, and e-bikes rather than competitive road racing where weight and pure speed are paramount.

It means the tire meets the safety standards set by the ECE regulation for e-bikes, specifically designed to handle speeds up to 50 km/h and the higher torque associated with electric bicycles.

Different sizes cater to various bike types and frame clearances. The 700x47C (45C) is a wider option suitable for touring, trekking, and e-bikes, offering more comfort and grip than narrower variants like the 700x28C.

It is compatible with 700c (28-inch) wheels with an ISO rim diameter of 622mm. Ensure your frame and fork have clearance for the 47mm tire width.

The maximum inflation pressure is 58 psi. It's best to consult the tire sidewall and your riding conditions for the optimal pressure.

Ensure the tire bead is properly seated on the rim. Check for any leaks around the valve stem or bead. Re-apply sealant if the leak persists.

This could be sealant that has dried or debris. If it's sealant, it might indicate a need for more or fresh sealant. If it's debris, carefully inspect and remove if possible.

Ensure tire pressure is consistently maintained within the recommended range. Riding on excessively rough surfaces or with improper inflation can accelerate wear.
