The tread of this tyre features a spaced area that clears mud and objects as you ride, giving you a high-traction performance that stays fast over unstable terrain. Technologies: Tubeless Ready: Tubeless tyres 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 tyre; and less chance of flatting since there is no tube. Maxxis Tubeless Ready (TR) tyres provide the benefits of a UST tubeless tyre without the weight penalty. Maxxis TR tyres use a standard casing and require the use of a liquid sealant in order to make them airtight. Maxxis Tubeless Ready tyres are the only Maxxis tyres approved for use with liquid sealants. Double Down: DoubleDown (DD) is the next step in the evolution of the dual-ply tyre casing for enduro racing. Two 120 TPI casing layers reinforced with a butyl insert provide the enduro racer with the support and protection of a downhill tyre, but in a lighter package. 3C Mountain: Maxxis 3C Triple Compound mountain technology uses a harder, longer lasting base layer and two progressively softer top layers in order to optimize traction and stability. Maxxis offers three different configurations of our 3C Triple Compound mountain technology: Maxx Speed, Maxx Terra and Maxx Grip. MAXX TERRA: 3C Maxx Terra is softer and offers more traction than 3C Maxx Speed, yet provides better treadwear and less rolling resistance than Maxx Grip. The perfect compound if you like to ride exceptionally fast and tackle every obstacle with confidence.

BlackChili Compound Continental refine newly developed synthetic rubbers with natural rubber with the proven high-performance tread compound. They use these rubbers with special nanometric carbon soot particles, which are optimized in shape and surface properties for best uses for the intended tyre. BlackChili Compound reaches an unprecedented of performance. Tyres with BlackChili Compound reach an unprecedented level of performance. Compared to the previous best Activated Silica Compound, BlackChili tyres have 26% less rolling resistance, a 30 % higher friction value (grip) and a 5 % increase in mileage. Apex Sidewall Technology The sidewalls of freeride and downhill tyres are subjected to extraordinarily high loads. A rubber profile between the carcass layers ensures stability. The Apex sits on the tyre bead and reinforces the sidewalls of the tyre. The tyre is thus protected from impact with the rim during rough rides over rocky ground. The tyre stays more upright when cornering. It does not bend over the sides of the rim when subjected to transverse loads, and always stays true to the course.
This mountain bike (MTB) tyre is specifically designed for tackling mixed terrain conditions on your ride.

Technologies: SmartNet: Made from our innovative SmartNET™ Silica and ICS and FGD technologies, Cinturato provides all-round cycling excellence. Thanks to its nano-rod conformation and the resulting network generation, coupled with the natural chemical water affinity of the Silica itself, it solves the traditional trade-off of rubber compounds, ranking high on opposite features such as rolling and wet grip, mileage and puncture protection.
Suitable for use in tubeless wheel and tyre systems, the Rocket Ron truly lives up to its name, as with its tight tread pattern it offers a very low rolling resistance. The tread’s advanced design includes stable shoulder studs so you can maintain grip the corners. Plus, there are still enough gaps between the studs to clear mud efficiently, preventing “spin-outs” when you’re attacking steep climbs. Additional Features: Cleverly designed tread balanced for low rolling resistance whilst remaining grippy Sufficient gaps for amazing self-cleaning properties Stable shoulder studs Recommended Tyre Pressures: 20x2.25”: max. 3.7 Bar (max. 54 psi); 24x2.35”: max. 3.5 Bar (max. 50 psi); 26x2.35”: max. 3.5 Bar (max. 50 psi); 29x2.1”: 1.8-3.7 Bar (26-54 psi); 29x2.25”: 1.8-3.7 Bar (26-54 psi) Weights: 20x2.25”: 410g; 24x2.35”: 560g; 26x2.35”: 640g; 29x2.1”: 560g; 29x2.25”: 600g Technologies: ADDIX Speed: The compound for XC race specialists, It catapults Schwalbe's XC tyres into a new performance dimension. It's the answer for those who’d like to go even faster. There’s only one thing that ADDIX Speed really loves and that’s speed. So the rolling resistance has been chopped yet again. ADDIX Speedgrip (27.5x2.25" only) ADDIX Speedgrip is the universal compound. It definitely has the widest range of use. Perfect for XC, AM and Trail: for the majority of EVO tyres there’s a version with ADDIX Speedgrip. It replaces the previous PaceStar compound where a significant, though not the only difference, during extensive use is more mileage and longer life. Super Race In no other discipline is the focus on rolling resistance and weight as critical as it is in cross-country and marathon competition. With the new Super Race construction, we are also setting new standards in suppleness - no other carcass glides so silky smooth over the ground, and thus providing traction, like Super Race does. E-25 (E-Bike Ready): Tyres with the recommendation "E-25" are the perfect choice for all pedelecs with pedal assistance up to 25 km / h. The most important criterion for this recommendation: security.
Super Gravity For Super Gravity the sidewalls are made up of four layers of carcass material, but there are only two layers underneath the cap, the classic downhill tyre construction has six layers under the cap. This adds unnecessary weight and unfortunately also makes the cap rigid and hard. The whole tyre (not just the sidewalls) is encased in SnakeSkin fabric. Weight is negligible and it helps a lot. In fact, it stabilises and protects while remaining extremely flexible. At the same time it is ideal for Tubeless Ready application. So Super Gravity means the tyre walls are more robust. The cap is more flexible. The tyre is lighter. Or in a single sentence: Downhill ruggedness at Enduro weight. Super Gravity weighed up: When combined with Tubeless Ready riders save an impressive 700 grams in weight in comparison with a conventional downhill tyre.
Maxxis Pace Mountain Bike Tyre (EXO-TR)The Maxxis Pace was designed in conjunction with Maxxis' World Cup XC racers, helping them to pick up the pace! It features a low-profile tread pattern that keeps rolling resistance to a minimum and provides consistent traction and grip right across the tyre.
