Race Riposte XC (RRxc) Triple Compound Triple compound construction works like this; hard understructure compound (94 ShA) supports the grippy softer lateral compound (50 ShA) as well as the medium durometer rolling compound (70 ShA). The third compound adds another level of structural integrity to the tyre. Tubeless Ready/HardSkin Performance Tubeless technology facilitates low-pressure riding, optimises grip and increases yield, improving tyre performance. Comfort: The Tubeless concept dispenses with the inner tube ensuring incomparable comfort and allowing low-pressure riding. Puncture Resistance: The Hardskin casing reinforcement provides puncture resistance on the tread and sidewalls. Technologies: Gives performance, grip and high-quality fast rolling. Ideally suited for dry and slightly loose XC and Enduro terrain. The ramps on the centre knobs provide excellent and predictable soft and dusty terrain braking. The Lower lateral (side) knobs in three distinct shapes hang on to the trail as the tyre deforms under. HardSkin bead-to-bead puncture protection.
Dual Compound Two compounds used within the tread of select tyres to offer lower rolling resistance and increased cornering grip. EXO Protection Technology An extremely cut-resistant and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of select mountain tyres. This densely woven fabric is also lightweight and highly flexible, ensuring that the performance of the tyre remains unaffected. Choose EXO Protection for exceptionally rocky, treacherous trails where the chance of sidewall cuts and abrasions is high. TR (Tubeless Ready) Technology 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. Their 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.

The MICHELIN FORCE AM² is designed as a fast-rolling tyre optimised for mixed terrain, hard-pack or trail centre conditions. It has a directional tread pattern designed for excellent rolling efficiency, but which also offers high grip levels under braking and in corners. The tread features elongated centre blocks for reduced rolling resistance and less ground penetration, but with prominent block edges for braking grip and traction. The shoulder blocks are inspired by the MICHELIN DH22 tyre and these ensure grip and stability in corners, along with progressive and predictable handling characteristics. In addition, an optimized ratio between tread blocks and grooves helps maintain momentum on flowing trails. The rubber compounds and casings of these tyres were previously tested in top-level Enduro racing and have been designed to offer the optimal balance between grip, rolling efficiency, longevity, weight and damage resistance. The dual-compound GUM-X Technology features a harder centre area for optimum rolling efficiency and tyre life, combined with softer rubber on the shoulders for cornering grip. The Gravity Shield Technology casing uses a bead-to-bead high density fibre for increased resistance to impact damage, sidewall cuts and punctures, coupled with a 3x60 TPI casing for stiffness and stability, while still maintaining good comfort levels. More Efficiency A specialised tyre for hard and mixed terrain, which optimizes efficiency for All Mountain riding. More Grip Tread pattern design reduces rolling resistance during All Mountain riding. In combination with Gum-X technology, it optimizes grip on hard terrain. More Robust More robustness thanks to the light and robust Gravity Shield casing, this tyre is ideal for All Mountain riding. Tubeless Ready
