The Continental Archetype is ready to race at the highest level and was made for the 2025 Tour de France. Developed in collaboration with UAE Team Emirates XRG, this is Continentals lightest and fastest 30mm tire to date, saving 35 grams over the Grand Prix 5000 S TR. The Archetype features a Tubeless Ready design compatible with both hookless and hooked rims, delivering low rolling resistance, responsive handling, and a smooth ride. Continentals Black Chili compound balances grip, durability, and efficiency by combining advanced synthetic and natural rubbers with soot particles, resulting in a tire that corners confidently and accelerates with minimal drag.

Active Comfort Technology is embedded in the casing to absorb road vibrations, keeping muscle fatigue to a minimum. Lazer Grip micro profiling along the shoulders improves cornering traction for maximum control at race speeds. For initial installation, Continental recommends at least 30mL of RevoSealant to achieve an airtight seal. This is a tubeless ready tire, helping its durability and reliability. The Continental Archetype Tour de France Limited Edition Tire is one the pros will be using in the biggest race of the year.
