Continental Aero 111 Foldable Tyre 2025

Aero Mastery. Pure Speed.

Introducing the AERO 111 – the next generation in tire performance, developed in collaboration with DT Swiss and Swiss Side. Engineered with a groundbreaking aerodynamically optimized tread featuring 48 precision vortex cavities, it creates controlled turbulence to keep airflow attached longer, reducing drag and improving crosswind stability. Combining aerodynamic innovation with BlackChili Compound and Vectran Breaker technology, the AERO 111 delivers exceptional speed, grip, and puncture resistance — the ultimate aero tire without compromise.

A Perfected Storm.

Why choose this tire

• Aero, grippy and fast: It is the go-to tire for road cyclists who know that every watt counts
• Vortex Generators allow for the reduction of aerodynamic drag of the entire wheel-tire-system
• Improved handling in crosswinds through enhancing the sailing effect
• Vectran Breaker for unparalled puncture protection
• The combination of all these features means on top of the low aerodynamic drag, the AERO 111 offers low rolling resistance, good puncture resistance and exceptional grip in both wet and dry conditions.

Aerodynamics by Swiss Side

Swiss Side are the industry leader in aero-dynamics. With over 20 years of experience in both Formula 1 and cycling, they are renowned for utilising the latest technologies and methodologies in computational aerodynamics and real-world testing.

Black Chili Compound

BlackChili compound is renowned for its perfect balance of grip and low rolling resistance. For AERO 111 we use a race-optimized BlackChili, offering low rolling resistance in combination with excellent grip in wet and dry conditions.

Vectran Breaker

Vectran, our patented technology from the GP5000 family. Selected for AERO 111 because of its unparalleled level of protection from sharp foreign objects, whilst not affecting rolling resistance.

Tubeless Ready

All Tubeless Ready tires have been designed with versatility in mind. It’s your choice: set up tubeless using Conti RevoSealant or use an innertube.
