Troy Brosnan wanted to create a unicorn of tires. A tyre that rolls madly fast, mills precisely through curves and decelerates accordingly well if necessary. The tread pattern of Rekon, Minion DHF and HighRoller II was used as the basis for this and was designed in close cooperation with Troy during the 2018 World Cup season.

Technologies
3C Maxx Terra
An intermediate compound configuration used in select mountain tires. 3C MaxxTerra is softer and offers more traction than 3C MaxxSpeed, yet provides better treadwear and less rolling resistance than MaxxGrip.
EXO+ PROTECTION
The previous EXO+ construction was based on a 120 TPI carcass reinforced with SilkShield and EXO puncture protection layers. The new EXO+ construction is built on a 60 TPI carcass coated with a new abrasion-resistant rubber. The sidewalls feature a now rubberised EXO puncture protection layer and a short butyl insert is incorporated over the bead. While the previous EXO+ technology had more puncture protection than EXO, the new EXO+ technology now offers almost twice the puncture protection and 20% more puncture protection, placing it pretty much between EXO and DD - with only 1-5% extra weight depending on the model. This should be a significant added value for many riders. The rolling behaviour of the new construction is very similar to the previous one. Although a 120 TPI rolls better than a 60 TPI in a direct comparison, SilkShield "dampens" this difference.
Tubeless Ready (TR)
Tubeless tires have many advantages: You can drive with less air pressure. This provides better traction and rolling resistance decreases. And where there is no hose, also decreases the risk of punctures. MAXXIS TR tires are better prepared for the assembly with sealing milk than others "Tubeless Ready" tires. The bulge of our TR tire is completely covered like a real UST tubeless tires with a rubber layer.
Wide Trail Casing
Wide Trail (WT) construction optimizes tread layout and tyre shape on today's wider rims. Traditional tires are designed for narrow rims and are too angular on wide rims for optimal performance.
WT tyres are optimised for an inner rim width of 35 mm, but function perfectly on all rims with an inner dimension between 30 and 40 mm.
