Maxxis Severe Tubeless Tyre

Don't lose grip when putting down watts in slop. It's likely you've seen the tread in the World Cup coverage under the likes of Nino, Bec McConnell and Anne Terpstra. The Maxxis Severe is a classic narrow-profile mud tyre in a 2.25 width, with a spiky tread pattern designed to cut through thick mud. Given our weather, you may want to stick this on over winter, but, the Severe is built with rain races in mind, it's indispensable

MaxxSpeed
An all-new MaxxSpeed compound for the Maxxis cross country (XC) line. The new MaxxSpeed uses silica as a filler in the rubber polymer creating a compound that performs better across the board compared to the old 3C MaxxSpeed. Racers benefit from reduced rolling resistance and improved wet traction.

EXO
An extremely cut-resistant and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of select mountain tyres. This densely woven fabric is also lightweight and highly flexible, ensuring that the performance of the tyre remains unaffected. Choose EXO Protection for exceptionally rocky, treacherous trails where the chance of sidewall cuts and abrasions is high.

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.
