Continentalについて
Continental (コンチネンタル)は1871年にHanoverで創設され、ゴム製品、ゴム使用生地、乗り物や自転車用タイヤの製造を始めた。それ以来コンチネンタルは自動車産業と自転車産業でタイヤ技術を開発展開してきた。そのタイヤはTeam T-Mobile (ドイツ), Credit Agricole (フランス), Saunier Duval (スペイン)といった数多くのプロロードチームに支持されてきた。Jan Ullrich, Erik Zabel, Bradley Wiggins, Axel Merckx, Robbie McEwen and Peter van Petegemといった個人競技のヒーローたちはコンチネンタルのタイヤと共に数々の勝利を手にしてきた。MTBのカテゴリーではthe Reevax Team (BEL), Team Cannondale (USA), Team Focus (GER)に好まれ選ばれてきた。その人気はコンチの得意としている超軽量、天候を選ばないその優れたハンドリング、高いパンクへの耐性力によるものだ。コンチはシティーバイクからスーパーソニックレースまで幅広いニーズに対応している。
