The Continental eContact Plus is a 27.5 inch eBike tyre built to give you confidence, comfort and range on every ride. Designed for 650b eBike MTB and urban setups, it helps you roll further on each charge while staying protected from everyday road hazards. If you rely on your eBike for commuting or carrying weight, this tyre is made to handle it.
This is the kind of tyre that makes sense when punctures and battery anxiety get old quickly. The compact tread keeps rolling resistance low, so your motor works less and your battery lasts longer, even on longer trips. At the same time, the reinforced construction is there for the real world, where glass, nails and rough edges are part of daily riding.
Who is this for?
Ideal for riders who commute daily, carry panniers, ride cargo eBikes or simply want a low-fuss tyre they can trust. It suits eBike riders who value puncture protection, stable handling under load and getting the most range possible from each battery charge. Also a solid choice for heavier riders or anyone riding at higher assisted speeds.
Who is this not for?
This is not the right tyre if you mainly ride loose dirt, mud or technical off-road trails. Riders chasing lightweight race tyres or aggressive MTB tread will find it heavier and more road-focused than they need. If maximum grip on wet roots or loose gravel is your priority, look elsewhere.
Why we love it
We like how predictable this tyre feels, especially when the bike is loaded up or moving quickly through traffic. The Safety Plus Pro Breaker gives peace of mind without making the ride feel slow or harsh. It is one of those tyres you fit and then stop thinking about, which is exactly what most eBike riders want.
Hot tip!
Run your pressure toward the lower end of the recommended range if you ride on rough urban roads or bike paths. You will gain extra comfort and grip without sacrificing much efficiency, especially on heavier eBikes.
