Maxxis Crossmark II 29×2.1 (EXO/TR) Tire

The Maxxis Crossmark II tire is built with specific technologies and materials for performance in Cross Country (XC) riding:

• Rubber Compound:

  • Dual Compound: Two different rubber compounds are integrated into the tread strip to balance low rolling resistance in the center and improved grip on the side knobs.

• Casing/Carcass:

  • 60 TPI (Threads Per Inch): A common casing density for general cross-country (XC) use, offering a good balance of durability and ride feel.

  • Foldable Bead: The tire uses a flexible, foldable bead, which saves weight compared to a wire bead.

• Protection:

  • EXO Protection: An extremely cut- and abrasion-resistant material (a densely woven, lightweight, and highly flexible fabric) is added to the sidewalls to enhance durability for gravel and XC riding.

• Tubeless Technology:

  • Tubeless Ready (TR): The tire’s bead is specifically designed to lock securely to a tubeless-compatible rim, often with a full rubber coating like a UST tire, to work effectively with liquid sealant.
