The Maxxis Aspen pushes the limits of a lightweight XC designed to have a minimal rolling resistance. The Aspen is designed with a high-volume casing to smooth out the roughest roots and rocks while the duals compounds give optimal traction in the corners. If crossing the finish line first is your top priority then the Aspen was designed for you.

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 EXOAn 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 highTubeless ReadyTubeless 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
