Continental Mountain King Tires

The hotly anticipated Continental Mountain King Tires provide big volume and big grip for fast, dry terrain, and a Supersonic version that does it all with insanely low weight. Continental made the Mountain King for the arid Rocky Mountain region, where huge center knobs play a less essential role than huge air volume and cornering prowess. The Mountain King comes in a Protection version with Conti's famous Duraskin, a UST version for the lucky Tubeless riders, and a lightweight Supersonic version that tips the scales at an astonishing 550 grams in 2.4 diameter. There's also a 2.2 for the skinny-tire East Coast riders out there. Word to the wise: if going huge and/or maching rock gardens is your deal, steer towards the heavier versions of these tires.

Bottom Line: Freeride performance, XC weight…it's good to be King.

Got an answer for oryxski1244811?

Got a question? Somebody out there has the answer.

Hi,Do these tires have any kind of warranty? I just ordered this...

Hi,
Do these tires have any kind of warranty? I just ordered this tire about a week ago and took them out on about 3 rides. Today the tire sprung a leak. The rubber actually started to rip around a lug. I was hoping the tire would last a little bit longer, is this covered under warranty.

Uh oh! I ride the Mountain King on my 29er and absolutely love it, I'm sorry that you've had these kinds of problems.

You have a couple of options:

1) Personally contact Highway2, the US distributor for Conti. They're the ones that deal with warranty and repairs.

2) Go into your local bike shop and ask if they can help you work with Highway2. Most of the guys I've worked with at H2 are pretty darned helpful, but if they give you any grief a dealer most certainly will be able to help you out.

Good luck!

Road these all weekend in Moab

By:

Great tires! I road these on Porcupine & Amasaback last weekend. Great tread pattern for all conditions. If you are a slick rock purist, these may not be your jam, but I found that they performed well on my Yeti 575. These floated me through the sandy places & river transition areas.
