Technologies
WT - Wide Trail
Wide Trail (WT) construction optimizes the tyre's tread layout and profile on today's 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 optimized for a 35 mm inner rim width, but are proven to work over a range from 30-35 mm inner rim widths, depending on the rider's preference.
TR-Tubeless Ready
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. Maxxis Tubeless Ready (TR) tyres provide the benefits of a UST tubeless tyre without the weight penalty. The square bead profile of the TR tyres is designed to work with the broad range of tubeless rims available on the market today. Maxxis's TR tyres use a special construction which allows the use of liquid sealants to make them airtight and to help prevent punctures. If needed, Maxxis TR tyres can also be used with an inner tube.
Exo+ Protection
A new EXO+ construction combines two of the best puncture protection materials: SilkShield and EXO. The SilkShield layer runs from bead-to-bead with a layer of EXO along the sidewalls. Combined, these two materials create EXO+ which improves tread puncture protection by 27%; sidewall durability by 51%; and resistance to pinch flats by 28%.
3C MaxxTerra
An intermediate compound configuration used in selec mountain tyres. 3C Maxx Terra is softer and offers more traction than 3C Maxx Speed, yet provides better tradwear and less rolling resistance than MaxxGrip.
