The reference in puncture protection

Vectranв "ў is a synthetically produced high-tech fiber with naturalür model. Like spider silk, Vectranв "ў is a liquid crystalline polymer (LCP). Vectranв "ў is spun from the molten liquid polymer Vectra and further processed into a multi-fiber yarn. Spider silk as well as Vectranв "ў have enormous tensile strength with minimal weight. Exactly the right properties to be used as a puncture protection insert in a Continental top tire. A Vectranв "ў breaker is lighter, more flexible and protects more effectively against cuts than comparable nylon breakers. The Vectranв "ў Breaker does not affect rolling resistance.
