Continental also currently makes and sells the Ultra Sport, which is very handy
because, while a little lower end, it is a very serviceable tire that is widely
available and made in both 1 1/4" and 1 1/8" widths.

I have some I've been test riding, and they are at least as good as the
Performance forte tires, if a little more in cost.......might actually end up
being better tires.



Continental Ultra Sport Tire - Multiple Sizes

Performance-minded tread pattern with treaded shoulders and circumferential grooves in the center for lateral grip

Fine casing with transparent sidewall offers good handling

Multi-layer casing construction offers high puncture-resistance, increased rolling performance and handling, minimum weight and increased comfort

Weight for 27 x 1-1/4 size is 380 grams; weight for 700 x 28 size is 350 grams

Imported
