Maxxis Aspen Tyres are a folding mountain bike tyre with the promise of speed. These moderately light weight tyres are a high volume, fast rolling tyre that will take you as far as you want to go on your XC bike. The tread pattern is a race inspired low chevron in the centre with more aggressive side knobs similar to what you would get from a cross between the Ardent and Minon DHF tyres. This tyre comes Tubeless Ready and with Maxxis EXO technology. EXO is Maxxis' side wall protection which provides a cut and abrasion resistant material to the tyre. If you have a need for speed on your trail, then these ones are for you!
