Rolling resistance
Rolling resistance: Fewer watts is better – every watt saved stays in the drivetrain.
63 tires with a measured value – best value 16.7 W (source: ENDURO Mountainbike Magazine Labortest 2025).
Power in watts a tire absorbs on the drum. It comes from casing flex and damping in the rubber compound.

How we calculate
One shared selection for every tire. Secondary values use measurement points from the same test series only.
More pressure: less rolling resistance, less grip, less comfort. Tougher casing: more protection, more weight. Softer compound: more grip, more rolling resistance.
No measured values are available for this selection yet.
Values from different test rigs are deliberately kept in separate blocks. More on that under Sources & method.
