Continental

Mountain King Performance 29in Tire

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve been running the Mountain King ProTection on my trail bike for a few months now, and it’s the kind of tire that handles everything—from slick roots to rocky climbs. It balances grip and rolling speed better than most tires I’ve tried, and the side knobs really dig in when cornering."

Whether we’re navigating loose berms or chattering over roots at speed, the Continental Mountain King ProTection tire gives us the grip and confidence to ride harder and push further. Handmade in Germany and loaded with Continental’s signature Black Chili compound, this tire is designed for full-suspension trail bikes that demand versatile traction without sacrificing speed.

The tread design pairs fast-rolling center knobs with aggressive shoulder lugs for reliable cornering control, while the lightweight ProTection casing offers excellent puncture resistance without feeling sluggish. With 3/180 TPI construction and tubeless-ready compatibility, it’s made to float over tough terrain and keep us rolling confidently on long rides or quick afternoon laps. Plus, it’s e-bike rated, adding durability for riders packing extra watts.
