Tread

The Shorty is the tyre for when trail conditions get wet and muddy. Tall, widely spaced knobs cut through the slop to give as much traction as possible and clear mud effectively. 

Well supported side knobs mean that the usable range of conditions for the Shorty is much broader than some other mud spike tyres on the market. An excellent front tyre for winter conditions in the Tweed Valley.

Casing

• EXO 

  EXO is the lightweight Trail sidewall from Maxxis and uses a cut and tear resistant fabric insert along the bead to reinforce the tyre to give good puncture protection without adding too much weight. This makes EXO an excellent choice for Trail riding or lighter Enduro riders.

Compound

• MaxxTerra 

  Maxxis’ MaxxTerra compound set gives a good blend between longevity and traction. While not as soft as the full traction but fast wearing MaxxGrip, a MaxxTerra tyre will last longer and roll slightly faster while still providing good levels of traction.
