Maxxis Rekon Race 29x2.40 120 TPI Folding 3C MaxxSpeed EXO TR

The latest in our long line of World Cup-winning XC tyres is the new Rekon Race! This semi-slick tyre borrows its tread design from the trail version of the Rekon; but with smaller and shorter knobs.

MaxxSpeed

• Coming in 2023 is an all-new MaxxSpeed compound for the Maxxis cross country (XC) line. The new MaxxSpeed uses silica as a filler in the rubber polymer creating a compound that performs better across the board compared to the old 3C MaxxSpeed. Racers benefit from reduced rolling resistance and improved wet traction

EXO ? on select models

• An extremely cut-resistant and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of select mountain tyres. This densely woven fabric is also lightweight and highly flexible; ensuring that the performance of the tyre remains unaffected. Choose EXO Protection for exceptionally rocky; treacherous trails where the chance of sidewall cuts and abrasions is high

Tubeless Ready ? on select models

• Tubeless tyres provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures; which improves traction; lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tyre; and less chance of flatting since there is no tube. Liquid sealants should only be used in the following types of tyres: Tubeless Road; Tubular; and Tubeless Ready. The use of liquid sealants in any other Maxxis tyre will void the warranty

Wide Trail

• Wide Trail (WT) construction optimizes the tyre?s tread layout and profile on today? modern; wider rims. Traditional tyres are designed around older; narrower rims and can create an overly square tyre profile; leading to less than optimal performance. WT tyres 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 rider?s preference
