KSh9,499.00
-
Rubber Compound:
-
MaxxSpeed Compound (New 2023 Version): This is Maxxis’ top-shelf rubber compound for XC racing, replacing the older 3C MaxxSpeed.
-
It is a single, high-silica content compound that significantly reduces rolling resistance (claimed to be over 25% lower than the previous version) and enhances wet traction.
-
-
Casing/Carcass:
-
120 TPI (Threads Per Inch): The tire uses a high-density casing.
-
This provides a flexible, lightweight, and supple carcass that conforms well to the terrain.
-
Folding Bead: The tire uses a flexible aramid fiber (often referred to as Kevlar) bead, which is lighter weight and easily transported.
-
Single-Ply Construction: The casing is made of one layer of nylon wrapped from bead-to-bead, contributing to its light weight.
-
-
Protection:
-
EXO Protection: This is a material added to the sidewalls.
-
The densely woven, lightweight, and highly flexible fabric provides extreme cut- and abrasion-resistance, ensuring durability on treacherous XC trails without affecting performance.
