Maxxis Ikon EXO Maxx Speed TR 29 X 2.35 MTB Tyre

The Ikon is for true racers looking for a true lightweight race tyre. With a high-volume casing and a fast rolling tread design the Ikon provides exemplary performance in all riding conditions. As its name suggests the Ikon represents all that is true in racing. Introducing the All-New MaxxSpeed Compound. An all-new MaxxSpeed compound for the Maxxis cross country (XC) line. The new MaxxSpeed uses silica as a filler in the rubber polymer creating a compound that performs better across the board compared to the old 3C MaxxSpeed. Racers benefit from reduced rolling resistance and improved wet traction. The use of three different durometers of rubber in a single tire–Maxxis’ 3C technology–set our mountain bike tires apart from the competition over the past two decades. But when it was time to develop a new topshelf XC compound we focused on performance above a specific number of compounds. Maxxis engineers used knowledge gained from the development of our full-silica road racing compound and began testing formulations suited to off-road use.  The New MaxxSpeed Compound: Over 25% lower rolling resistance compared to the previous version Saves a rider up to a minute over the course of a 90-minute XC race Racked up World Cup and World Championship wins over the last few seasons with the likes of Nino Schurter Bec Henderson and Ghost Factory Racing Weight: 29x2.35 - 835g TPI: 120 Bead: Foldable Ply Construction: Single Compound: MaxxSpeed Max PSI: 60 Tech: Tubeless Ready EXO
