Conti Attack and Force

[Mark U.]

Any opinions about the Continental Attack/Force tires? I'll need new ones soon and these looked
interesting.

Please ask in rec.bicycles.tech, not here.

Thanks,

Excuse me, but if I wanted to know how many tpi they had I would ask in
r.b.t, but I'm interested in how they ride, how they feel, are they good for racing, how do they
corner, how about in wet conditions?

Thank you.

All of those questions are more appropriate in r.b.tech. BTW, quit top-posting you n00bie.

Thanks,

Yeah. You tell him, Mark.

And also, is there any truth to the rumor that one of these tires is named after Chris Daggs? Does
he get a royalty?

Those smart Continental engineers (they all have high foreheads) have used a directional thread and
an arrow on the sidewall indicating the direction of rotation - I wonder how this effects the
coefficient of rolling resistance ? To be on the safe side make sure you put them on the right way
otherwise you might end up going backwards ...
