Maxxis' Ardent Race tire is an ideal choice for technical XC races and endurance challenges. Positioned between the XC-oriented Ikon and the trail-focused Ardent, it features a medium-height tread that balances grip and speed. Ramped center knobs reduce rolling resistance, and angled side knobs provide excellent cornering traction. Whether you're tackling a challenging XC race or an epic trail adventure, the Ardent Race is a top pick.
[ 3C MaxxSpeed ] Maxxis' 3C tires use a firm base rubber to reduce rolling resistance and progressively softer rubber on outer layers to optimize traction. 3C MaxxSpeed is a fast-rolling formulation of Maxxis' triple compound, best for XC racing applications.
[ EXO ] A material, resistant to cuts and abrasions, incorporated into the sidewalls of various gravel and MTB tires. Ideal for diverse riding applications, spanning from gravel to XC to light trail usage.
[ TUBELESS READY ] Tubeless tires offer advantages like lower pressure for better grip, reduced rolling resistance, and flat prevention. Tubes can still be used in tubeless tires, too!
