Maxxis Shorty MTB Folding Tire TR EXO 3C MaxxTerra - 27.5 inch

The Maxxis Shorty is a mid-spike 650B enduro tire suited for dry, loose and rutted corners as well as for muddy conditions. Its high-volume, single-ply casing offers trail riders high traction in a light package. Huge and high knobs provide predictable cornering. The center tread is a mix of rectangular and squared knobs for best braking performance. Furthermore the Shorty features a Tubeless Ready casing, 3C MaxxTerra compound and EXO sidewalls.

The MaxxTerra is an intermediate compound configuration used in select mountain tyres. 3C Maxx Terra is softer and offers more traction than 3C Maxx Speed, yet provides better treadwear and less rolling resistance than Maxx Grip.

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 is an extremely cut and abrasion resistant material that protects the sidewall. It is very tightly woven, light and very flexible. This keeps the performance of the tire unchanged good.

Model 27x2.5" comes as WT version:

Wide Trail (WT) tires are optimized for an inner rim width of 35 mm, but work perfectly on all rims with an inner rim width of 30-40 mm.

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.
