Continental Race King Supersonic 2.0

To celebrate the arrival of my new Fulcrum Red Metal Zero wheelset I also ordered a couple of Continental Race King Supersonics in 2.2 width.

These tubes are absurdly thin, but extremely light at only 90g for the 26" presta valve versions.

These are Continental's ultimate weight weenie race tyres. They are only available in one size - a scant 1.9 and when inflated on the rim they do look small compared to the awesome X-King 2.4's.

The Conti Race King Supersonics and Racesports can be a bit fiddly to get setup tubeless. Here's the procedure I use:

A nicely made front hub from the Black Forest. Not super light at 115g but a really solid hub for the weight. Uses a 17mm axle and 6803 bearings. Machining and finish is immaculate.
