TECHNOLOGIES
EXO+
EXO+ is Maxxis medium-duty puncture protection option suitable for all-around trail riding and light weight e-bikes. We begin with a durable 60 TPI casing, add in our legendary EXO puncture protection layer in the sidewalls, and top it off with a small butyl insert around the bead. The tough casing and EXO material ward off damage from rocks and roots, while the butyl insert protects the tire from pinch flats and helps prevent rim damage.
3C MAXXGRIP
Maxxis 3C MaxxGrip compound uses the stickiest, slowest rebounding rubber we offer in a mountain bike tire. This high traction compound is the same one used by our top World Cup Downhill and Enduro World Series athletes and is now available in a variety of casing configurations to cover all riders.
- 3C MaxxGrip + EXO casing = Light duty trail riding in wet/slick conditions
- 3C MaxxGrip + EXO+ casing = All-around trail riding in wet/slick conditions
- 3C MaxxGrip + DoubleDown casing = Enduro racing and e-bikes
- 3C MaxxGrip + Downhill casing = Downhill racing and long travel e-bikes
TUBELESS READY (TR)
WIDE TRAIL (WT)
Wide Trail (WT) construction optimises the tires tread layout and profile on todays modern, wider rims. Traditional tires are designed around older, narrower rims and can create an overly square tire profile, leading to less than optimal performance. WT tires are optimised for a 35mm inner rim width but are proven to work over a range from 30-35mm inner rim widths, depending on the riders preference.
Maxxis Wide Trail XC tires are optimised for use with 30mm internal width rims, but they will perform well on rims as narrow as 25mm. Maxxis does not recommend rims wider than 30mm or narrower than 25mm
