TR (Tubeless Ready) – tubeless is the law!

Todays world is extremely favourable to tubeless systems using sealant. Maxxis TR tyres fully match this trend. On the one hand they are considerably lighter than the previously used LUST (Light UST) variants, yet their construction and bead shape perfectly meet the needs of tubeless setups. Tubeless tyres can be run at lower pressure, which increases the contact patch and the treads ability to follow the terrain, while removing the risk of a pinch puncture, i.e. damage to the tube. Last but not least, weight is saved, and without a separate tube the friction inside the wheel is reduced too.

EXO Protection

In the world of trail and all-mountain fun, riders often move over rocks and among other sharp obstacles, so appropriate sidewall protection must be kept in mind. The EXO Protection solution uses an additional layer of extra-durable material that protects the tyre around its entire circumference, especially against abrasion and cuts. This material is also highly flexible, so ride characteristics are not affected – only the weight increases slightly.
