Hanover, Germany, January 20, 2026: Continental has expanded its gravel lineup with the launch of the Terra Adventure Graphite-Reflex, a new variant of its most capable gravel tire.
Featuring a Graphite Reflective strip for improved visibility in low-light conditions, the Terra Adventure Graphite-Reflex gives riders the confidence to push further, for longer, deep into the darkness.
Designed for riders who thrive on exploration and independence, the Terra Adventure is now offered in a distinctive Graphite‑Reflex option that sits confidently within the range. Delivering the same proven performance as the original Terra Adventure, this edition adds an R88‑certified reflective sidewall strip for enhanced visibility during demanding off‑road riding. It bridges the gap between gravel and cross‑country MTB with uncompromised rolling speed, secure grip, and long‑distance durability.
Alexander Haenke, MTB and Gravel Product Manager, Continental Tires, said: “With the new Terra Adventure Graphite-Reflex, we’re expanding our gravel tire portfolio for riders who want to venture further with greater confidence. By integrating R88-certified Graphite-Reflex, we’re improving low-light visibility and offering riders extra peace of mind on extended or unpredictable routes.
“Whether you’re tackling dark-season gravel rides or pushing through late-night bikepacking miles, Terra Adventure Graphite-Reflex adds a meaningful safety advantage without compromising style or performance. At Continental, we’re dedicated to creating products that align with every rider’s adventure — and with this new addition, the journey can continue long after the sun goes down”.
Inspired by Continental’s cross-country mountain bike technology, the Terra Adventure Graphite-Reflex features the same fast-rolling, open tread pattern that delivers dependable traction from soft soil to hardpack. Reinforced shoulder knobs boost cornering confidence, while the 3-3-4 Center Stud arrangement provides stability under braking and smooth transitions across mixed surfaces.
Across the full size range, from the 45mm speed-focused profile to the comfort-oriented 55mm, each tire retains Trail Casing protection, tubeless-ready construction, hookless compatibility, and Continental’s proven Grip Compound for reliable performance in all conditions.
