Trusted by commuters, tourers and club riders worldwide, the Continental GatorSkin Folding Tyre delivers exceptional puncture protection, long-lasting durability and reliable performance in all conditions.
Tyre type: Tube Type
What’s this? ▼
A tube-type tyre requires an inner tube to hold air — they can’t be used tubeless. Inner tubes are sold separately unless specifically included. This is the most common setup for everyday bikes and is easy to install or repair if you get a puncture.
Tyre bead: Folding
What’s this? ▼
Folding bicycle tyres feature a lightweight, flexible bead made from aramid fibres (like Kevlar) instead of steel wire. This allows them to be folded compactly for easy storage and transport. They are generally lighter, often found in higher-performance models, and contribute to a more nimble ride, though they typically come at a higher price point than traditional wire-bead (non-folding) tyres.
The Continental GatorSkin Folding Tyre has earned legendary status among cyclists who demand a tyre that can handle miles of hard riding with minimal fuss. Known for its balance of toughness, grip and speed, it’s the go-to option for riders wanting peace of mind on everything from fast commutes to long-distance tours.
Built with Continental’s proven PolyX Breaker™ puncture protection and DuraSkin® sidewall armour, the GatorSkin Folding Tyre shrugs off road debris, glass shards and rough edges that can end lesser tyres. Despite its durability, it retains a lively road feel, rolling smoothly without the sluggishness you might expect from such a robust design.
Who is this for?
This tyre is ideal for road cyclists who value reliability and low maintenance over chasing marginal gains. Whether you’re commuting through city streets, clocking up winter training miles, or embarking on long adventures, the GatorSkin Folding Tyre is built to handle varied conditions without constant worry about punctures.
Who is this not for?
If your priority is an ultra-lightweight race tyre optimised purely for speed and low rolling resistance, the GatorSkin Folding Tyre may not be your best choice. Its focus is on durability and protection, so pure racers looking for a supple, high-TPI competition tyre might prefer Continental’s Grand Prix series instead.
Why we love it
The GatorSkin Folding Tyre is one of those rare products that genuinely lives up to its reputation. We love how it blends near-bulletproof puncture protection with dependable grip and surprisingly good ride quality. It’s the tyre you can mount and forget about, safe in the knowledge it will carry you through thousands of kilometres without fuss — rain, shine, or the occasional glass-strewn back street.
