Description
The New Choice of Champions
The Continental Archetype is the new pinnacle in road rubber: a racer's tire, with speed and low rolling resistance at its heart. It was developed in collaboration with UAE Team Emirates - XRG with the goal of making a tire that was even faster than their already fastest race tires. After countless hours of test riding (and winning,) they developed a stripped-back tire with only racing in mind. This special Tour de France Limited edition sports a brilliant yellow to remind everyone of its elite pedigree.
With the legendary BlackChili Compound Conti have answered the eternal question of the best balance of grip and rolling resistance. It features the latest polymers as well as specially developed carbon black particles and filler materials to guarantee truly unique levels of performance.
Embedded in the tire construction is Active Comfort Technology, which absorbs vibrations and smooths out your ride. The tread features Lazer Grip to make you one with the road. The lazered micro profile structure expands over the tire's shoulder and provides outstanding cornering.

Reviews
I purchased two sets of the Archtype for my wife and I for RAGBRAI and fast group rides this summer. No flats and the ride is super comfortable using 60psi after we've both ridden 600 miles on them! Grip is excellent even in rain. We want to switch all our road bikes to this tire!
Simple and plain: Unintentionally set a PR for 100 mile solo ride, 89% was in zone 2, @17.1 mph, 4000+ feet elevation. I rode my new EVO 1x, psi specifically set per SRAM calculator on Zipp 303 SW for bike+rider+gear at 190 lbs. Gear means my shoes, filled water bottles. 30mm tires were dolphin-smooth. No fear running tubeless with a micro pump, and zipp's TPU tube as a last resort spare. 293 miles on the tires so far. My STRAVA shows it
