• Dual Compound
• 60 TPI
• EXO or Silk Shiled puncture protection options
• Tubeless Ready

EXO is a cut- and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of many Maxxis mountain bikes and gravel tires. This densely woven fabric is lightweight and highly flexible, ensuring the tire’s performance remains unaffected. Choose EXO Protection for enhanced durability for gravel, XC, and light-duty trail riding.

SilkShield offers protection from bead to bead, whereas Silkworm is found under the tread only.

SilkShield provides an additional level of protection for sidewalls and under the tread.

Tubeless-ready tires provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures, which improves traction; lower rolling resistance compared to a tube-type tire; and less chance of flatting because there is no tube. Tubeless-ready tires are denoted by the letters TR on the sidewall.

Tubeless-ready tires must be mounted to tubeless-compatible rims and require the use of a liquid sealant to maintain pressure. Liquid sealants also seal small punctures. Be sure to check your sealant regularly and refresh it as needed, as it will dry out over time. You can pickup an extra bottle of sealant here.

Liquid sealants should only be used in the following types of tires: tubeless road, tubular, and tubeless-ready. Using liquid sealants in any other Maxxis tire will void the warranty.
