How we calculate

Width, casing and compound decide how a tire really rides. We only show what was actually measured – and label estimates honestly.

Reference: documented test pressure of the source (24.7 psi (1.70 bar)).

More pressure: less rolling resistance, less grip, less comfort. Tougher casing: more protection, more weight. Softer compound: more grip, more rolling resistance.

Modelled values are assumptions based on the stated measurement points – not a lab test.

Watts measured on the test rig: lower is better. The 1-10 ratings on this page: higher is better.

No lab of our own: measurements come from the third-party test named above – the source is linked directly.

Automatic assessment

Tested: Calculated from the stored measurements – compared only within the same test series and category (Enduro).

  • Rolling resistance

    Mid-field

    46.5 W · rank 16 of 31 comparable Enduro tires

    19.1 W behind the best value in the same test series. Fewer watts is better – every watt saved stays in the drivetrain.

  • Impact protection

    Weaker in comparison

    19.5 % · rank 30 of 33 comparable Enduro tires

    65.9 % behind the best value in the same test series. A higher percentage is better – the tire cushions hard edges for longer.

  • Weighed weight

    Mid-field

    1,227 g · rank 13 of 31 comparable Enduro tires

    245 g behind the best value in the same test series. Fewer grams is better, but usually costs casing stability.

In this test series the tire is below average for both rolling resistance and impact protection – other models do both better.

BIKE Magazin

February 2024

In this short test, BIKE pairs the coarse Argotal at the front with the Kryptotal at the rear to see if it's the ideal combo for enduro riders. The Argotal proves especially strong on loose and soft terrain, providing plenty of confidence there. It is rated a clear recommendation for loose ground.
