Continental expands Dubnital range

Continental has expanded the Dubnital tyre range with the launch of a new 50 mm version. Originally introduced as a fast-rolling cross-country mountain bike tyre, the Dubnital has been around for a while in a 55 mm width; the new narrower option is claimed to offer improved rolling efficiency while retaining grip, comfort, and control. According to Continental, the tread pattern is optimised for dry to damp conditions across hardpack, rocky terrain, and medium-loose surfaces. The tyre is also available in two casing options. The Race casing uses Continental’s Rapid compound for lower weight and maximum speed, while the Trail casing is intended to provide greater durability. The Dubnital 50 mm is available with an RRP of £67 / €75 / $87.
