Continental ContiTech Argotal
Best premium tire for riders tackling loose and muddy trails.
This is a dedicated specialist for loose, unpredictable dirt that refuses to compromise on cornering bite. While the aggressive, open tread pattern excels at shedding mud and finding grip where others slip, you will notice a bit more rolling resistance on hardpack compared to faster, lower-profile alternatives.
