5 tyre combinations in laboratory and practical tests
When it comes to trail bike tyres, the motto is: low rolling resistance instead of maximum puncture protection. We have tested trail tyre combinations in practice and in the laboratory.

Up and down: Trail tyres have to be able to do a lot, above all they have to roll well, otherwise the undulating ride through the terrain becomes a feat of strength, and instead of flow, the carotid artery swells.

The entire test of these tyre combinations is available as a PDF in the download area below:

  • Bontrager XR5 | Bontrager XR4
  • E13 TRS Race A/T | E13 TRS Race S/S

For technical descents, he is prepared to tackle almost any ascent - under his own steam. As an accessories specialist, he is the first port of call for questions about equipment and add-on parts, while as head of copywriting he sweeps the language crumbs from the pages of the BIKE print editions.
