Using your Continental Argotal tire is easy. First, make sure it's properly mounted on your 27.5 - inch mountain bike wheel. If you're using it tubeless, add a good quality sealant. When riding, this tire is best suited for loose terrains like dirt and loam. Take advantage of its great cornering stability and side - grip when taking turns. Just be careful not to over - inflate the tire; keep the PSI at around 50. For maintenance, after each ride, clean the tire with a soft brush and soapy water to remove any dirt or debris that might be stuck in the tread. Check the tire regularly for any signs of wear or damage, especially the sidewall. If you notice any cuts or bulges, it might be time to replace the tire. Also, if you're using it on an e - bike, remember that the extra weight and power can put more stress on the tire, so be a bit more vigilant with your checks.
