Maxxis Ardent Race MTB Folding Tire TR EXO 3C MaxxSpeed - 29x2.35 Inches

Note: Delivery includes the tire only. Other products shown serve solely illustrative purposes and will not be delivered.

The Ardent Race tire from Maxxis is ideally suited for technical race courses and endurance-length events. With its medium-height tread, the Ardent Race bridges the gap between the Ikon and the Ardent. The center knobs are ramped to reduce rolling resistance, and the side knobs are angled and stepped to provide great biting traction in corners. Choose the Ardent Race for your next demanding race or epic trail ride.

3C MaxxSpeed
Used primarily in cross country and enduro tires, the two compounds of the tread are specially formulated to reduce rolling resistance and optimize treadwear and traction.

Tubeless Ready (TR)
Tubeless tires provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures, which improves traction; lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tire; and less chance of flatting since there is no tube. Maxxis Tubeless Ready (TR) tires provide the benefits of a UST tubeless tire without the weight penalty. Maxxis TR tires use a standard casing and require the use of a liquid sealant in order to make them airtight. Maxxis Tubeless Ready tires are the only Maxxis tires approved for use with liquid sealants.

EXO Protection
An extremely cut-resistant and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of select mountain tires. This densely woven fabric is also lightweight and highly flexible, ensuring that the performance of the tire remains unaffected. Choose EXO Protection for exceptionally rocky, treacherous trails where the chance of sidewall cuts and abrasions is high.

Note: Tubeless Ready tires require tubeless compatible rims/wheels, tubeless valves, tubeless rim tape and sealing fluid for tubeless mounting. Sealant fluid is not required for tubeless UST tires, but is recommended for increased puncture protection. Installation should only be carried out by qualified personnel.
