Continental Town & Country
Best durable tire for urban and light trail cyclists.
This is the ultimate set-and-forget tire for riders who treat their commute like a mission. It sacrifices the lightweight agility of a racing tire for tank-like puncture protection and a slick center that hums on pavement, making it the reliable workhorse you want when you can't afford a flat.
