Agarro Trail

I've been searching high and low for tires for my Trek Top Fuel (130 front, 126 rear with a long-stroke shock). This is my daily-driver bike for riding and coaching, which means it needs to be extremely versatile. It has to handle everything from mild to wild, dry to muddy, and handle the speed of riding with professional athletes. I was previously running Maxxis Rekon's front and back. The did everything OK, but nothing great. They also always felt slow-rolling.

These tires fixed everything I didn't like about the Rekons. They corner incredibly well. They have traction for days. They shed mud like it was never even there. Plus, they roll way faster than they look like they should.

I paired these with a set of Airliner Light inserts. With 2.4 Rekons, I'd been running 21/23 psi front and rear, and I was still bottoming the rear tire on the rim occasionally. With the 2.4 Aguarros and Airliners, I'm running 16 front, 18 rear and never feel like I'm at risk of bottoming. It's amazing how much more naturally you can flow through the trails when you stop feeling like you have to protect the tire and rim.

The 2.6 (measures smaller closer to 2.5) has more way more bite than it looks like it should. for the dry conditions of the front range of Colorado it is an awesome choice as a rear (aggressive trail). Fast, delight to pedal, but when you go beast mode it handles its business and provides considerable grip while being able to break loose in a deliberately induced controlled way.

I have been impressed with the AGARRO so far. I've used it mainly in dry, loose, rocky, and rooty areas. Grip has been predictable with no surprises. Great rolling speed. I will definitely buy again.

The Agarro is one great trail tire. Excellent grip for the trails with rolling speed of an xc racer. Pair them up with the Martello up front for a sweet setup.

Amazing locked in grip on this while also being really fast rolling.
