The Continental Hometrainer Clincher Tire was specifically designed to handle the rigors of the winter roller blues, withstanding the heat that would damage your outdoor road slicks. A heat-resistant rubber compound prevents overheating on the home trainer, continually performing on rollers and home trainers as the temperature rises from your longest indoor rides. These tires are not meant to be ridden on the road, as they will quickly deteriorate under the abrasion. The Continental Hometrainer Clincher Tire beats the heat when it comes to the unique demands of a home trainer. Try them out when the weather outside is frightful but a ride indoors is so delightful.
