How we calculate
Width, casing and compound decide how a tire really rides. We only show what was actually measured – and label estimates honestly.
Continental Kryptotal Rear: Reference: test pressure 24.7 psi (1.70 bar).
Vee Tire Attack FSX: 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.

Rubber compounds
Hardness scale 1 = hard and fast to 5 = very soft and grippy (our own classification).
Different grip classes: the softer tire must roll slower. Read the watts with that in mind.
Continental Kryptotal Rear offers the softer compound range – more grip, usually at the cost of wear.
Lab data per version

These two tires have no measured values from the same test series. A direct comparison of numbers would not be sound.

Without a lab test pressure we anchor the measured watt value at the recommended pressure. The curve shape is a physics model, not a measurement. Labs do not measure grip across pressure – we do not invent that curve. Wet grip is a lab value per tire model, not per version.
Three curves at most – hide one first.
Variants head to head
Every measured variant of the selected tires – the same model in another compound, width or casing sits right next to it. Empty fields mean no reliable measurement.

Tests and sources
Continental Kryptotal Rear
In this comparison test, the Kryptotal combo is examined as a trail tyre duo and compared against the Magnotal at the rear. Testers highlight the confident grip and the good balance between rolling resistance and traction. The combo is clearly recommended for demanding trails.
BIKE MagazinThe editors tested the Kryptotal as front and rear tyre in Enduro and DH casings over several months. It impresses with high grip on varying terrain and good puncture protection. Overall, the hype around Continental's all-rounder is judged to be justified.
MTB-News.deENDURO's lab test measures 64 MTB tires under standardised conditions (20 km/h, 1.5 bar, 50 kg wheel load) for rolling resistance, pinch-flat protection and puncture resistance. Key takeaway: weight and pinch-flat protection are closely linked, while rolling resistance depends mainly on the rubber compound. Summarised in our own words; details and measured values at the original.

Vee Tire Attack FSX
The Vee Tire Attack FSX was tested as the rear counterpart to the Snap WCE on enduro and downhill tracks. It proves versatile, offering solid rolling behavior with sufficient traction. This marks a successful entry for the Thai newcomer in the MTB segment.
