Bites the track!
Today's World Cup downhill tracks are steep, technical monsters with ever-changing conditions. Maxxis' pros needed a mid-spike tire that could handle dry, loose, blown-out corners as well as a bit of mud. The Shorty is that tire. A high-volume, dual-ply downhill casing makes the Shorty a more versatile option than a dedicated mud spike like the Wet Scream. Large, tall and slightly staggered side knobs penetrate loose soil to provide predictable, stable cornering at warp speeds. The alternating pattern of the center tread features widely-spaced knobs to clear debris, and their square shape offers plenty of braking bite. For downhill mountain biking in gnarly, mixed conditions, the Shorty can't be beat!
SuperTacky
The higher damping and better traction offers professional riders time improvements of several seconds, and for normal riders more grip and more riding pleasure. A tip for dedicated bike park rider: SuperTacky at the front and MaxxPro at the rear - a recommended combination of grip and durability.
DualPly DW casing:
Two layers of casing material are used from bead to bead, providing additional protection and sidewall stiffness for downhill applications.
