The Maxxis Rekon Race 29x2.40 120 TPI Folding 3C MaxxSpeed EXO Tubeless Tyre is engineered for riders seeking a high-performance cross-country tyre that excels in speed and control. This semi-slick tyre features a tread design optimized from the trail version of the Rekon, with smaller, shorter knobs to reduce rolling resistance while maintaining grip. Ideal for hardpack surfaces, it offers a perfect balance between aggressive cornering and fast rolling, making it a versatile choice for both race day and challenging trail rides.
Built with Maxxis' innovative MaxxSpeed compound, this tyre delivers enhanced traction in wet conditions and reduced rolling resistance for faster acceleration. The EXO sidewall protection adds durability against cuts and abrasions, making it reliable even on the most rugged and rocky trails. Designed to be tubeless ready, the Rekon Race allows riders to run lower air pressures for improved traction without the worry of pinch flats, enhancing overall ride confidence and performance.
With a folding bead and 120 TPI casing, the tyre remains lightweight and flexible, ensuring responsive handling and comfort on rough terrain. The Wide Trail construction further tailors the tread profile to wider modern rims, providing optimal contact and stability. Whether you pair it with a more aggressive front tyre or use it front and rear for short track racing, the Rekon Race stands out as a premium choice for serious XC riders who demand speed, durability, and control.
Is this tyre suitable for front and rear use?
The Rekon Race can be used both front and rear, especially for short track racing. However, many riders prefer pairing it with a more aggressive front tyre for added grip on technical descents.
What benefits does the MaxxSpeed compound provide?
The MaxxSpeed compound improves wet traction and reduces rolling resistance, allowing for faster speeds and better control in various conditions compared to previous compounds.
Can this tyre be used tubeless?
Yes, the Rekon Race is tubeless ready, enabling riders to run lower air pressures for enhanced traction and reduced flat risks.
What rim width is this tyre optimized for?
It is optimized for rims with an inner width of 30-35mm thanks to Wide Trail construction, offering optimal tread profile and stability on modern wider rims.
