Description

Featuring a small, ramped center tread and more substantial side knobs, the Maxxis Ardent Race tire provides improved cornering performance in dry-to-mixed trail conditions.

Key facts
  • Large block side knobs are stepped and siped to provide excellent cornering traction
  • The 3C MaxxSpeed Compound for XC features 2 compounds in the outer layer that help reduce rolling resistance and optimize tread wear and traction
  • EXO puncture protection is a cut- and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls for enhanced durability
  • Tubeless-ready tires can run lower air pressures for better traction, have less rolling resistance than tube-type tires and have less chance of flatting
  • Tubeless-ready tire must be mounted to a tubeless-compatible rim with the use of a liquid sealant in order to retain air
