The Maxxis Aspen 29 x 2.40 tyre is engineered for cross-country riders who demand speed, control, and durability. Featuring a high-volume casing and a low-profile tread, this tyre offers a smooth ride by absorbing the harsh impacts from roots and rocks, making it ideal for competitive racing and challenging terrain. The dual compound MaxxSpeed technology ensures optimal traction around corners without compromising on rolling efficiency, giving you the edge to finish first.
Built with EXO puncture protection, the sidewalls are reinforced with a cut- and abrasion-resistant fabric, perfect for rocky and treacherous trails where durability is crucial. Its folding bead design and tubeless-ready construction allow for lower air pressures, enhancing grip and reducing flats. This tyre balances lightweight design—at just 710g—with robust performance features, making it a top choice for riders focused on speed and reliability.
Whether you're racing on hardpack or mixed loose/medium terrain, the Maxxis Aspen delivers excellent cornering control and rolling efficiency. Its 170 TPI casing provides flexibility and strength, while the maximum 40 PSI rating offers the versatility to adjust pressure for different trail conditions. With the MaxxSpeed compound's improved wet traction and reduced rolling resistance, you can confidently tackle diverse environments with superior performance.
