Maxxis Shorty Folding 3C/DD/TR/WT 27.5x2.50 Tyre Black
Description
The DH version of the Maxxis Shorty was an instant favourite of Maxxis World Cup DH racers. The single-ply version offers trail riders the same traction in a much lighter package. Today's World Cup downhill tracks are steep, technical monsters with ever-changing conditions. Pros needed a mid-spike tyre that could handle dry, loose, blown-out corners as well as a bit of mud. The Shorty is that tyre. Large, tall and slightly staggered side knobs penetrate loose soil to provide predictable, stable cornering at warp speeds. The alternating pattern of the center tread features widely-spaced knobs to clear debris, and their square shape offers plenty of braking bite. For downhill mountain biking in gnarly, mixed conditions, the Maxxis Shorty can't be beat!Maxxis Shorty FeaturesMid Spike Tread DesignConditions: Loose, Wet, MudCornering Control: 1 2 34Rolling Efficiency: 12 3 4Tyre SpecificationSize: 27.5 x 2.50" WTTPI: 60PSI: 60Bead: FoldingCompound: 3C Maxx TerraCasing: Single PlyTech: DDTubeless ReadyWeight: 1,170g3C Maxx TerraAn intermediate compound configuration used in select mountain tyres. 3C Maxx Terra is softer and offers more traction than 3C Maxx Speed, yet provides better treadwear and less rolling resistance than Maxx Grip.Double DownWith dual-ply 120 TPI casing and a butyl insert, Maxxis’ Double-Down technology is ideal for enduro-style rides.Tubeless ReadyTubeless 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. These TR tyres use a standard casing and require the use of a liquid sealant in order to make them airtight.
