The Continental ContiRoad Attack is widely regarded as a high-performance sport-touring tire that excels in dry-weather handling and offers a unique 'cold-mould' construction that minimizes warm-up time. While the majority of users praise its agility and confidence-inspiring feedback, a minority of riders report inconsistent wet-weather performance and issues with front-end stability or cupping as the tire reaches the end of its service life.
What owners say
No road-test results yet, so every score here comes from owner reviews found online.
How scores work
- Relative score
- 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.
By owner reviews
69/100From 11 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.

The Continental ContiRoad Attack is widely regarded as a high-performance sport-touring tire that excels in dry-weather handling and offers a unique 'cold-mould' construction that minimizes warm-up time.

Pros
- Minimal warm-up time due to advanced construction technology
- Excellent dry-weather grip and cornering agility
- Strong longevity and consistent performance over high mileage
- Predictable handling characteristics that inspire rider confidence
Cons
- Inconsistent wet-weather performance reported by some users
- Potential for front-end cupping or vibration as the tire wears
- Handling can feel overly aggressive or 'twitchy' for riders accustomed to more neutral profiles
- Limited off-road capability, prone to sliding on loose surfaces
Worth knowing
- Users on heavier sport-touring machines like the ZZR noted that the tire's profile significantly quickens steering response compared to OEM alternatives.
- Riders on dual-sport or adventure-style bikes (e.g., KTM 1190, DRZ SM) noted that while excellent on pavement, the tire is not suitable for sandy or loose off-road conditions.
