I can't recall what this one was:
Are they only available in Gum-X?
I'm wondering about using a Wild Enduro on the front and then something better rolling on the back - but I don't know what.

Racing Line version is Magi-X only and uses a downhill casing; regular Wild Enduro come in Gum or Magi-X, and have a lighter casing.
I genuinely don't think a tyre's rolling resistance comes into play unless you're riding very dry trails or proper hardpack. In the UK certainly, most of your time is spent overcoming claggy mud rather than the tyre's resistance.

I've been using Wild Enduros when riding trails. The rear Gum X one is awful, no grip but then also doesn't roll well either. Currently using Magi-X fronts on both ends and it's much better in terms of grip. Still a bit draggy but I'd rather that than no grip
