Maxxis Shorty EXO Folding 3C MaxxTerra Tyre is a good choice for your trail bike in muddy or loose conditions. The EXO casing is specifically aimed at lighter trail use options, for enduro riding go DoubleDown!

After gathering years of data and feedback from our World Cup Downhill and Enduro World Series athletes. The Shorty was redesigned in 2021. The knob layout has been altered to improve wet traction, cornering performance, and therefore mud shedding abilities. The narrower 2.40″ casing improves frame and fork clearance for when things get really sloppy and reduces weight.

Available technologies:

3C MaxxTerra:

• Maxxis’ 3C MaxxTerra is an intermediate triple compound configuration used across our mountain tire line. The 3C MaxxTerra compound offers more traction than 3C MaxxSpeed, yet provides better tread wear and less rolling resistance than MaxxGrip. Which makes it ideal for trail riding in all conditions.

EXO:

• EXO is a cut and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of many Maxxis mountain bike and gravel tires. This specifically densely woven fabric is lightweight and highly flexible, ensuring that the performance of the tire remains unaffected. Choose EXO Protection for enhanced durability for gravel, XC, and light-duty trail riding.

Tubeless Ready:

• Tubeless tyre provide the rider with many benefits. The ability to run lower air pressures, which generally improves traction. Lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tyre and less chance of flatting because there is no tube. Liquid sealants should only be used in the following types of tyre: tubeless road, tubular, and tubeless ready.

Wide Trail:

• Wide Trail (WT) construction optimises the tyre’s tread layout and profile on today’s modern, wider rims. Traditional tyres are designed around older, narrower rims and can create an overly square tyre profile, leading to less than optimal performance. WT tyres are optimised for a 35mm inner rim width but are proven to work over a range from 30-35mm inner rim widths, depending on the rider’s preference.
