  • Love this tire
Size: 29x2.50WT - EXO, E25
Love this tire! Was originally running a 2.3 high roller II and was not pleased with the way it handled unless you aggressively leaned the bike. There were really no "transition" knobs on the high roller II, so mid turn on anything other than super tacky and the high roller would feel like it was squirming under me. Rode a new tallboy 3 for fun, which came with the 2.3 dhf and was super impressed. Knowing that I had just picked up some 30mm wide carbon rims, I decided to try the 2.5 for a front. I was not disappointed. When you buy these tires, make sure to read the part number and ensure you're getting the exact tire you need/want. They come in a lot of variations. I actually purchased one from another seller first, and they mis-listed the item as an exo dual compound - when I actually received a double down exo tire (literally 1500 gram heaviest tire they make). Now, i'm not a weight weenie or anything, but when you order a tire you want to make sure the compound and sidewall are going to work for the riding type you do. Dual compound is great for middle of the road tread softness. Not too hard to be super focused on rolling resistance, but not too soft to be a detriment to keeping speed. Typically, the dual compound is what comes on the stock DHF tallboy 3, so that's the way I went. I can say, after riding the double down casing, the standard exo casing is much grippier on hard pack. The harder the sidewall, the less compliant it will be to form around the terrain and obstacles you are riding. The exo protection on my old high roller was awesome for well over 2 seasons of riding, so I stuck with that and nothing more. Not to mention that the standard exo single ply is much lighter. Again, not a weight weenie, but I really noticed the difference putting this one on compared to the double down. the front just feels super nimble compared the the heavy double down - and thats saying a lot for a 2.5 front. Also note, this tire in the 2.5 29er form, though not always listed this way, is the "WT" tire - meaning wide trail sidewall design. Both DHF's had this, so I'm unsure if I can tell the difference this WT creates. They say it's a better rolling profile for 30-35mm - I've heard of lots of guys with 28mm internal going with WT as well. Overall, the single ply exo dhf is an amazing trail tire. If you're looking for something on the aggressive side of trail for a front, this tire has gobs and gobs of grip and really doesn't roll any worse than my high roller II 2.3. It doesn't roll quite as easy as a nobby nic, but it gives a ton more confidence and seems way more surefooted in any terrain you can throw at it. I paired this up with a 2.35 ikon exo rear, which I feel really balances the bike out for rolling speed & grip. was really surprised how well they worked together, even on dry dusty hardpack. ... show more

Initially, I encountered an unforeseen issue with a recently purchased Maxxis product. However, the swift and efficient resolution provided by your team was truly commendable. The immediate, no-cost replacement, handled without any complications, speaks volumes about Maxxis's commitment to standing behind its products. As a dedicated cyclist who frequently tackles challenging and rough terrains, I rely heavily on premium equipment to ensure safety and performance. This experience has only reinforced my confidence in Maxxis. Your tires consistently deliver the durability and reliability essential for my riding needs, and the exemplary post-purchase support has solidified my trust in your brand as my exclusive choice for bicycle tires. ... show more

  • Good quality tires!

I ordered these tires for my wife's bike and they look great! The look and feel shows good quality. The performance so far has been fantastic!

  • High on traction, high on rolling resistance
Size: 27.5x2.60 - EXO, E25
Awesome tire! But riding anywhere but down can be tough due to the high rolling resistance. Going from these to a Continental crossking is like night and day. If you ride to your trailhead I would definitely pass. But for an emtb that would be a noooooo brainer.

  • Great tire!
Size: 26x2.30 - EXO, E25
These are awesome tires! They are super grippy on trails and not too rough on asphalt! They are a great all around tire. They also look awesome on my 20 y/o Gary fisher hard tail!

  • Good tire, with one caveat
Size: 29x2.30 - EXO, E25
This is a great tire and I'm running them on my IBIS and I've run them on my Giant. Just know that there's a slight gap between the tread on the top of the tire and the side of the tire. So when you're taking a sharp switchback or berm you have a split second of panic where you feel the bike slide because it's transitioning between the tread groups. Otherwise it's a great tire but the first few times I felt that after running a more all around tire I about freaked out. Besides that, the tread holds like a champ and chomps through most trail terrain. ... show more
