Continental Mountain King - Personal Ride Review

Do not under estimate this claimed 2.2 and look like 1.5. Took my bike to RRI for my regular Sunday ride with Conti Mountain King. Please refer to my previous comments here

front with Continental Mountain King 2.2 and rear with Kenda Nevegal 2.1. Can you see the different?


On road the tires is soft and on gravel it absorb all the vibration. Rolling resistant is better than Kenda Nevegal. Does the 70g off from each wheel really make it so easy to pedal now? Need to test again on places like Batu Dam, Kiara and Kemensah.

For a RM50 this is a very good deal and grippy. Cornering not as good as Kenda Nevegal 2.1. Maybe because of the width.

17th August 2008 - this tires has a very soft compound and very prone to tire puncture. Already puncture two tubes with this Continental Mountain King - both at the rear.
