How we calculate
Width, casing and compound decide how a tire really rides. We only show what was actually measured – and label estimates honestly.
Kenda Booster Pro: Reference: recommended pressure 24 psi (1.65 bar) – an assumption, not a test pressure.
Vittoria Peyote XC Race: Reference: recommended pressure 24 psi (1.65 bar) – an assumption, not a test pressure.
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.
Vittoria Peyote XC Race offers the softer compound range – more grip, usually at the cost of wear.

Wet grip is measured in the lab on a hard wet surface – it is not off-road grip.

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
Vittoria Peyote XC Race
off-road.cc awards 9 out of 10: the Peyote XC Race runs very smoothly and feels fast, the supple casing absorbs bumps well and puncture protection convinces. The low tread reaches its limits on hard ground; test weight 717 grams.
off-road.ccBike Perfect credits the Peyote XC Race with high speed on dry, loose ground and impressive puncture resistance. Under braking it breaks away easily and cornering grip is limited — the recommendation: run it on the rear only.
Bike PerfectIn Bicycle Rolling Resistance's lab test, the Peyote XC Race measures 21.3 watts of rolling resistance, 39 points for puncture protection and 72 points for wet grip — the best values compared to the Mezcal and Barzo XC Race. Overall score 5.0 out of 5 ("Highly Recommended").
