"The tire features a tread pattern designed for dry to damp conditions across rocky, hardpack, and medium-loose surfaces, incorporating a fast-rolling center section for straight-line efficiency."
"According to Continental's MTB and Gravel Product Manager, Alexander Haenke, the 50mm dimension targets technically demanding races such as Traka, The Rift, and Badlands."
"The tire has a nicely rounded profile, and despite the aggressive knobs, it rolled on pavement without a lot of excess noise or resistance."
"The extra grip provided by the shoulder knobs was extremely welcome in the loose, high-speed corners, enhancing performance in challenging conditions."
Continental has launched a 50mm width option for its Dubnital gravel tire line, originally designed for cross-country racing. The tire features a tread pattern suitable for dry to damp conditions and is designed for rocky, hardpack, and medium-loose surfaces. It includes a fast-rolling center for efficiency and pronounced shoulder knobs for traction. The 50mm size is aimed at technically demanding races, providing a choice for frames that cannot accommodate the larger 55mm version. The tire is available in Race and Trail casing configurations.
