Continental Aero 111

Introducing the AERO 111 – the next generation in tire performance, developed in collaboration with DT Swiss and Swiss Side. Featuring an innovative and aerodynamically-optimized tread, this tire is engineered to effortlessly cut through the air like never before. The tread's 48 precision-formed, vortex-generating cavities create controlled turbulence, ensuring prolonged airflow attachment to the rim, resulting in reduced aerodynamic drag and improved crosswind stability.

The AERO 111 also incorporates all the winning technologies from the GP5000 TR Family: Black Chili Compound for superior grip and minimal rolling resistance, coupled with the trusted Vectran Breaker for added puncture protection. It’s the ultimate aerodynamic tire – without compromise.

The aero-optimized tread pattern certainly looks different: 48 little cavities are regularly distributed over its surface. These so-called ‘vortex generators’ are the very feature that manage to control the turbulence in the airflow on the surface of the front wheel. Ultimately, this results in a perfected storm that allows for the reduction of drag of the entire wheel tire system. 

• Aero, grippy and fast: It is the go-to tire for road cyclists who know that every watt counts
• Vortex Generators allow for the reduction of aerodynamic drag of the entire wheel-tire-system
• Improved handling in crosswinds through enhancing the sailing effect
• Vectran Breaker for unparalled puncture protection
