MAXXIS tires IKON 26 x 2.35 3C MaxxSpeed TR EXO
The Maxxis Ikon was originally developed for cross country use. The tread of the tire grips corners incomparably well and rolls very quickly on the straight. In the large-volume version, the Ikon established itself as an indispensable front tire in the dirt jump and slopestyle scene and you can find it on the bikes of Emil Johansen, Brandon Semenuk and many others.
3C Maxx Speed
Our fastest 3C compound for XC and some AllMountain / Enduro tires is designed for the lowest rolling resistance due to the hard substructure and the fast compound in the center of the tread, but with the non-slip compound on the sides it also offers superior grip in curves, even in the wet. The very long service life is also typical of MAXXIS.
Tubeless Ready (TR)
tube tires have many advantages: You can drive with less air pressure. This gives better traction and reduces rolling resistance. And where there is no tube , the risk of punctures is also reduced. MAXXIS TR tires are better prepared for mounting with sealant than other "tubeless ready" tires. The bead of our TR tires is completely covered with a rubber layer like a real UST tubeless tube . As a result, tube installation is successful for all rims with standard dimensions the first time you pump it up and with little liquid.
"Normal" MAXXIS MTB tires can also be mounted tubeless with sealant like tires from other manufacturers, as the carcass fabric is very dense.
However, only the new MAXXIS TR models are officially approved for tubeless assembly and guaranteed by MAXXIS. The tubeless assembly of other models is at your own risk.
Note: We strongly advise against the use of sealant containing ammonia. Ammonia has been shown to attack the carcass and, depending on the amount used, can weaken it by up to 30% after just a few months.
EXO Protection
This extremely cut and abrasion resistant material protects the sidewall of various MTB tires. It is very tightly woven, light and very flexible. As a result, the performance of the tires remains convincingly good.
