More than a quarter of the peloton at the 2026 Tour de France will ride on our tires. 🚴‍♂️ Six teams have chosen our road bike tires for the 3,333-km journey from Barcelona to the Champs-Élysées: UAE Team Emirates – XRG, Movistar Team, Groupama-FDJ United, Bahrain-Victorious, DECATHLON CMA CGM TEAM and Uno-X Mobility Cycling. “To focus on our legs, we need to be able to rely on tires that deliver top performance at all times,” says Pelayo Sánchez a Movistar Team rider. Over 1,000 Continental tires will be used during the three-week race. To meet the demands of each stage, the teams can choose from four different models: ✔ Grand Prix 5000 S TR – the all-rounder, balancing rolling resistance, puncture protection and weight ✔ Grand Prix 5000 AS TR – the all-season tire for variable weather and wet asphalt ✔ Grand Prix 5000 TT TR – the lightweight option for time trials ✔ Aero 111 – aerodynamically optimized for windy conditions And the best part: the technologies used by the pros are available to every cyclist in selected retailers. The rubber compound, the puncture-protection layer and tubeless-ready design are the same innovations that power your peloton. Learn more: https://ow.ly/SecY50Zfwax
