We ride the Trinotal Tire from Continental when our route takes us from hardpack to loose-over-hard and everywhere in between. Built to replace the legendary Cross King, the Trinotal is a versatile option for modern riders pushing the limits of XC and downcountry terrain. Its tubeless-ready, hookless-compatible design allows lower PSI for more grip and control without risking flats. Continental offers the Trinotal in both Race and Trail casings—Race for featherweight speed on race day, and Trail for robust reliability on rowdy descents. Riders can choose between the balanced Grip compound for versatile control or the Rapid compound for high-speed acceleration inspired by road and gravel race tech. Certified under the E25 e-bike rating, every Trinotal model includes reinforced flat protection and sidewall support for added resilience. Whether you're climbing technical singletrack or flowing down alpine switchbacks, this tire is your passport to confident trail performance.
