Schwalbe appear to have discontinued their Tyrago range of tyres from what I can tell.
The rear tyre on my Boardman CX Comp needs replacing as it's showing wear and has little tread left for grip. What supersedes it as the closest direct replacement or a good alternative? (I cycle on-and-off road, nothing too serious; the Tyrago seemed to cope well unless it was particularly muddy up hill.)
Do you mean a CX tyre having similar tread to your Tyrago? Do you mean performance-wise? Same brand? Why don't you just buy a new tyre of same brand and model (Tyrago supersedes Tyrago)?
The question's a bit vague. Most CX tires produced recently are pretty much well-performing and supersedes Tyrago (or even better than it), though it depends on its specializations.
Anyways, I'll hand out some examples of CX tires with similar, angled treads/knobbles: (might give you insight on what you want)
Michelin Protek Cross - very fast rolling (road) but slippy in muddy conditions.
Michelin Cyclocross Mud 2 - fast rolling (road), more traction, a bit mud-clearing
Bontrager CX0 - pretty fast rolling (road), okay traction, not that mud-clearing, side knobs for cornering
Maxxis Mud Wrestler - okay rolling (road), nice traction, very mud-clearing
Continental Cyclo X King - meh rolling (road), mud-biting traction, mud-clearing
Hope you can sort that thing out. I myself use something like the Bontrager CX0 as I both go on long road tours and off-road sessions.
