A semi-slick XC race tyre with the lowest profile tread in the Maxxis cross-country lineup. The Rekon Race is built for speed on dry XC trails and short track racing, with a dual compound construction that balances grip and rolling efficiency. High rolling speed is the priority here, with moderate cornering control and braking traction suited to firm, predictable terrain. Available in two wire bead options to match your wheel size. Both feature 60TPI casing and E-25 width optimisation. The 27.5 x 2.25 comes with EXO sidewall protection for added cut and abrasion resistance, providing enhanced durability on rocky or rough terrain. Recommended for rear tyre installation, ideally paired with a more aggressive front tyre for a grip-focused setup.
