Maxxis Shorty Gen 1 3C MaxxGrip DH MTB Tire
Maxxis Shorty Gen 1 3C MaxxGrip DH MTB Tire Item # 846700
Description
The Maxxis Shorty is a mid-spike tread designed for use in extremely loose and dusty, or wet and sloppy trail conditions.
3C MaxxGrip
3C MaxxGrip compound uses the stickiest, slowest rebounding rubber Maxxis offer in a mountain bike tire. This high traction compound is the same one used by their top World Cup Downhill and Enduro World Series athletes and is now available in a variety of casing configurations to cover all riders.
Downhill (DH)
As the name implies, Maxxis' Downhill casing tires are designed for extreme use in all gravity applications from downhill racing to bike park riding to free riding to long travel e-bikes. A Maxxis Downhill tire is made with two layers of durable 60 TPI casing material along with a large butyl rubber insert that extends from each bead into the sidewall. The butyl insert helps prevent pinch flats, protects the rim from impacts, and provides additional sidewall stability.
