Fast-Rolling XC and Downcountry Tyre for Firm, Rocky Trails.
The Continental Dubnital is the successor to the Race King. It’s built to carry speed across hardpack and rocky trails, with enough tread for patches of loose soil. It’s a good fit for XC racing, downcountry riding and fast trail loops in dry to damp conditions.
Choose Your Casing and Compound
- Race casing: The lighter choice for XC racing and riders who prioritise weight and acceleration.
- Trail casing: A light, durable single-ply construction for everyday trail riding.
- Rapid compound: Prioritises rolling speed and acceleration on flats and climbs.
- Grip compound: Balances traction and rolling speed. On this listing, it comes in 29 × 2.4 with the Race casing.

Our Thoughts
We’d start with Race / Rapid for XC racing on firm courses or Trail / Rapid for regular trail loops where you still want a quick-rolling tyre. If you want more grip without moving away from the Dubnital tread, the 29 × 2.4 Race / Grip is the option to look at.
