Rolling Resistance – Which SCHWALBE tire has the lowest rolling resistance?
The rolling resistance of a tire should not be overestimated, as it is only a part of the total resistance. In addition, the correct inflation pressure has a much greater influence on rolling resistance than the tire structure. In order to make a tire with very low rolling resistance, it is necessary to compromise on other important factors such as puncture protection or grip. The following gives a rough overview of tires and their relative rolling resistance. A direct comparison is impossible though, as the tires have different widths and some are used with very different inflation pressures.
