Fast-rolling gravel performance for hard-packed roads and long adventures.
The Continental Terra Hardpack 27.5-inch tyre is designed for riders who spend their time on firm gravel and mixed-surface routes. Its wide footprint and flat centre tread balance stability, grip and rolling efficiency for long rides and bikepacking trips.
PureGrip compound and a tubeless-ready ShieldWall casing provide a practical combination of traction, durability and puncture protection.
Made for Firm Gravel
The Terra Hardpack is at home on hard-packed gravel where a fast-rolling tread helps you cover ground efficiently. Its footprint provides stability when the route includes rougher sections or changes between sealed and unsealed surfaces.
PureGrip and ShieldWall
Continental’s PureGrip compound balances traction and durability. The ShieldWall casing uses an additional woven fabric layer to help protect against punctures and damage while retaining flexibility over uneven terrain.
Tubeless Ready
The Terra Hardpack can be set up tubeless with a compatible rim and sealant, or used with a suitable inner tube. Continental recommends RevoSealant for tubeless setups.
