Cubierta Maxxis Rekon Race EXO TR MaxxSpeed

The Maxxis Rekon Race EXO TR MaxxSpeed bike tyre is made for pure speed on fast and dry XC (cross-country) courses. With relatively short studs and a semi-slick tread, it delivers minimal rolling resistance without sacrificing grip. Ideal for short-track racing or as a fast rear tyre combined with a front tyre with a more aggressive tread.

Lightweight construction with race tread
The Rekon Race EXO TR MaxxSpeed tyre is composed of a lightweight double-layer carcass with 60 TPI that makes for smooth handling and excellent control on dry, hard surfaces. The tyre features a semi-slick tread with shorter and smaller knobs than the standard Rekon model to reduce rolling resistance and increase speed. The tubeless-ready bead fits tightly to the rim and saves weight, and the foldable design makes installation easier. The focus on speed and efficiency makes this tyre ideal for race-focused use.

EXO protection and practical details
EXO protection in the sidewalls uses a cut-resistant, densely woven nylon fabric that minimises abrasion from stones and sharp edges. This material is flexible enough not to affect riding comfort yet sturdy enough to increase security on technical trails. Thanks to the Tubeless Ready design, the tyre is easy to make airtight with sealant, which helps to prevent flats and allows you to ride with lower tyre pressure for more grip. The tyre offers a perfect balance between weight, durability and speed and, therefore, a competitive choice within the XC segment.

Compatibility and use
The Rekon Race EXO TR MaxxSpeed tyre is designed for use on mountain bikes with 29 inch wheels and a rim width that supports Tubeless Ready. It is compatible with standard rim types thanks to its foldable Tubeless bead, and can be used as a front or a rear tyre in short-track races. For technical courses, the tyre is often used as a rear tyre in combination with a coarser front tread for extra control.
