An extremely cut-resistant and abrasion-resistant material has been added to the sidewalls of the tyre. This densely woven fabric is lightweight and highly flexible, ensuring that the performance of the tyre isn't negatively affected. Choose EXO Protection tyres for exceptionally rocky, treacherous trails where the chance of sidewall cuts and abrasions is high.
Tubeless Ready
Tubeless tyres provide many advantages: they allow you to ride with a lower tyre pressure, they improve grip and traction, have lower rolling resistance compared to a clincher, and decrease the chance of flats due to punctures or snakebites. Maxxis Tubeless Ready (TR) tyres have the benefits of a UST tubeless tyre without adding weight.

Good tyre for winter.
2.4 version would be better for a trail mtb
Pros & Cons

Recommended as a front tyre vs smart sams
Fine upgrade for my front tyre compared to the (polder model) Smart Sams I bought the bike with. Super grip in the woods, though noticeably more rolling noise and a bit more resistance on asphalt. Great front tyre for in the woods: fast and lots of grip. Recommended in combination with Maxxis Ikon at the back! Of course, delivery was excellent!

Nice upgrade rear tyre vs smart sams
Fine upgrade for my rear tyre compared to the (polder model) Smart Sams I bought the bike with. Great grip in the woods, though noticeably more rolling noise and a bit more resistance on asphalt. Fine rear tyre for in the woods: fast and lots of grip. Highly recommended! Of course, delivery was also top-notch!
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Fast all-rounder with good grip.
I ride the Ardent 29" 2.25 with the Ikon 2.20 on the back. Fine tyre combination for year-round riding on the Utrechtse Heuvelrug. The Ardent is well manoeuvrable and is a real all-rounder. Only at full speed hanging in sharp sandy downhill bends it doesn't like as much, it can tend to break out. But what tyre does that well. The tyre lends itself well to body steering. Came in at 798 grams.
