Its genius lies in a tread pattern that features densely packed, mid-height knobs to decrease rolling resistance and bite into a wide variety of terrains. The blocks are well-spaced to provide excellent mud-clearing capabilities, ensuring you maintain traction even when conditions turn sloppy. When you lean the bike into a corner, the large, aggressive side knobs dig in hard, offering exceptional and predictable cornering grip on everything from loose-over-hardpack to soft forest loam. This tyre inspires you to push your limits, knowing you have reliable control underfoot.Built for the rigours of modern trail riding, this version of the Forekaster features MAXXIS´s renowned EXO Protection.

It's the peace of mind you need when navigating technical rock gardens. As a Tubeless Ready (TR) tyre, it allows you to run lower air pressures for a massive boost in traction and a smoother ride, all while significantly reducing the risk of pinch flats. This tyre is also rated for E-bikes (E25), making it a durable and reliable choice for pedal-assist mountain bikes. The folding bead construction keeps the weight down and makes for easier installation.This 2.40 Wide Trail (WT) version is optimized for today´s wider internal rim widths (30-35mm), creating a perfect tyre profile that maximizes traction and cornering performance.

The original Forekaster was designed as a wet weather option for XC, while the new version is aimed squarely at modern short travel (100mm-130mm) trail bikes - aka the downcountry segment. Intended to be a Goldilocks tyre, the new Forekaster rolls fast but also provides solid cornering and braking traction in a broad range of trail conditions. Features include: A densely packed tread pattern to increase rolling efficiency, taller side knobs to improve cornering grip and raised ridges on the casing to promote mud clearingSpecificationGoldilocks of mtb tyresCompound: Dual Compound TechnologyBreaker: EXO Puncture ProtectionMax PSI: 50Bead Type: FoldingTubeless TyreTPI: 120Weight: 945gDual Compound: Two compounds used within the tread of select tyres to offer lower rolling resistance and increased cornering gripEXO: An extremely cut-resistant and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of select mountain tyres. This densely woven fabric is also lightweight and highly flexible, ensuring that the performance of the tyre remains unaffected. Choose EXO Protection for exceptionally rocky, treacherous trails where the chance of sidewall cuts and abrasions is highTubeless Ready: Tubeless 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. Liquid sealants should only be used in the following types of tyres: Tubeless Road, Tubular, and Tubeless Ready. The use of liquid sealants in any other Maxxis tyre will void the warranty.
