Technologies of the Maxxis Forekaster Folding Tire - 3C MaxxTerra | EXO + | TR | WT
- 3C MaxxTerra - The trail version of the triple compounds: It combines good rolling resistance uphill with great grip on the descent. MAXXTERRA has less rolling resistance and lasts longer than the DH compound MAXXGRIP, and has more grip and traction than the XC compound 3C MAXXSPEED. It is "the golden mean" for trail riders.
- EXO + Protection - The new EXO+ carcass is built on a 60TPI carcass coated with an abrasion resistant rubber. On the tire sidewalls is a reinforced and rubberized EXO puncture protection layer and over the tire bead a short butyl insert. Thus, tires with EXO+ Protection are built for aggressive trail riding and lighter enduro races and especially suitable for the higher torque and weight of E-MTBs.
- Tubeless Ready - Tubeless tires on the bike have many advantages. You can ride with less air pressure and thus has better traction, the rolling resistance is lower than with tube, and with a sealant instead of a tube, the risk of punctures is greatly reduced, because small holes are simply sealed. In MTB tires are driven in competitions almost only TR tires, and also in road cycling the number of users is increasing continuously.
- Wide Trail - The Wide Trail (WT) construction optimizes the profile layout and tire shape on the wider rims used today.
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.
