LEADING

Technology is the lifeblood of Maxxis’

competitive advantage. Professional

racers know a tire’s performance de-

pends on far more than what can be

seen. Take a moment to peruse the

technology that makes Maxxis better,

3C Road – Triple Compound Technology,

invented for our Road Racing line

TRIPLE COMPOUND

TECHNOLOGY

Maxxis is proud to be the irst bicycle tire manufacturer to use Triple Compound Technology: three different

compounds in the tread of a single tire. Partnering with silica manufacturer Degussa, Maxxis has developed

these compounds to optimize grip in tight corners at severe lean angles and offer great tread life. With the three

compounds’ placement optimized, you won’t feel the transitions – just the grip.

LUST

Lightweight Ultimate Sidewall Technology

Maxxis Mountain Tubeless tires, certiied to UST® standards, now feature Lightweight Ultimate Sidewall Technology

(LUST). LUST offers better puncture resistance, improved air retention, better longevity and lower weight than previous

tubeless technologies. Our engineers were not content with simply having one of the best tubeless tires on the market.

Instead, they went back to the drawing board, reinvented the tubeless tire from the casing and tread and addressed your

concerns about tubeless technology. By adding a thin fabric layer to the sidewall covered in a special air-tight rubber

compound, Maxxis created a casing that is lighter, tougher and holds air better. Now, it’s available to you on all of our

Cross Country and Freeride Tubeless tires.

3C DH – Triple Compound Technology,

invented for our DH Racing line

Maxxis has revolutionized the DH racing scene again. By combining the best properties of our most popular rubber

compounds, we’ve created a tire that brakes and corners better than previously thought possible, while offering tread

life approaching that of our harder compound tires. True to our focus on delivering the best possible technology to

all riders, Maxxis isn’t hoarding this breakthrough for professional racers: we’re also offering it to you in your favorite

tread patterns.

In addition to the cutting-edge technology only Maxxis can offer, many other factors can affect the performance of a tire. To help you choose

the perfect tire for your ride, below you’ll see a list of the various technologies available in our tire lines along with deinitions.

THREADS PER INCH (TPI)

The number of nylon threads that

cross through one square inch of the

tire’s casing. Only one ply of a dual

ply casing is counted. Lower TPI

gives better puncture and tear

resistance, but is heavier. Higher TPI

conforms more to the terrain,

offering a smoother, more supple

ride. It is also lighter weight.

KEVLAR ® BELT

Made from material used for bullet-

proof vests, a Kevlar ® belt provides

maximum puncture protection in the

most unpredictable conditions.

Unlike belts which merely disperse

Kevlar among other materials, the

Maxxis Kevlar belt contains only this

state-of-the-art fabric. The specially

formulated Kevlar belt is positioned

between the tread and casing layer.

KEVLAR ® COMPOSITE

New for ’09 is the revolutionary

Kevlar Composite breaker. Available

in select tires, this Maxxis exclusive

fabric provides more puncture

protection than both standard Kevlar

and Vectran. The addition of this

lightweight and supple material

ensures that the ride quality and

performance remains unsurpassed.

SINGLE PLY

One layer of nylon holds it all

together. Wrapped from bead to

bead, a single ply conforms well to

the terrain and is lighter weight.

SILKWORM CAP PLY

Silkworm Technology is an exclusive

material incorporated into the casing

of select Maxxis tires. The Silkworm

material helps to increase puncture

and tear resistance, while at the

same time increasing rotation

eficiency. This helps keep you in the

saddle and on the move.

RUBBER COMPOUNDS

The most obvious and arguably most

important part of a tire is the tread

compound. By changing the amounts

of various components of the rubber

compound formulation, engineers can

make two tires that look identical but

perform differently. Below are some

distinct characteristics of some of our
