The crucial balance. The rolling properties of the rubber compound of a tyre are
primarily determined by three interacting factors � stiction [grip], rolling
resistance and mileage [longevity] . The dilemma: If you improve any of these
factors it can have a detrimental effect on at least one of the others. A tyre with
maximum grip wears quicker and rolls more slowly. If you then make a tyre roll
faster and more durable, grip, in turn, is reduced.
With our BlackChili Compound, a tread compound which is always based on the latest
knowledge of polymers and raw material research, we have supplied the cycling
industry with an enduring solution. Depending on the application of a tyre, we
adjust the compound formulation for the specific discipline � for road or mountain
biking, time trialling or downhill racing.
How does that work? For BlackChili, we refine special synthetic rubbers with proven
natural rubber to high-performance tread mixtures. To these mixtures we then add
soot particles, which in turn are optimised in shape and surface properties. The
complex compound technology is so sensitive that tyres with BlackChili Compound are
produced exclusively in our German Korbach plant.
