Maxxis Rekon Race 27.5x2.25 Folding 120TPI EXO TR

Product details

The Maxxis Rekon Race is a semi-slick cross-country (XC) mountain bike tire designed for speed and efficiency on fast, dry trails. It combines elements of the trail-focused Rekon with a lower-profile tread pattern to reduce rolling resistance, making it ideal for racing and fast-paced XC riding.

• Semi-Slick Tread Design: Low-profile center knobs for fast rolling with slightly raised side knobs for confident cornering.

• Dual Compound Rubber: Balances tread life, grip, and rolling resistance.

• EXO Sidewall Protection (optional): Increases durability against sidewall cuts and abrasions.

• Tubeless Ready (TR): Compatible with tubeless setups for reduced weight and better traction.

• Available Sizes: Commonly available in 27.5' and 29' diameters, widths ranging from 2.25' to 2.4'.

• Lightweight: Built with racing in mind—lighter than the standard Rekon for quicker acceleration and climbing.

Ideal For

• Cross-Country Racing: Designed for short-track (XCC), marathon (XCM), and traditional XC races.

• Fast, Dry Trails: Best on hardpack, dusty, or lightly loose terrain where speed is key.

• Rear Tire Use: Often paired with a more aggressive front tire (like a Maxxis Aspen or Rekon) for a balance of speed and grip.

• Trail Riders Wanting Speed: Great for experienced trail riders on smoother terrain who want to maximize efficiency
