Reviews of Maxxis tires

Can be quality of tyre as well also your driving style. If tyre have soft compound it will go down quicker. I went trough set in 6 months. Maxxis premitra 5. Good grip but my god, they disappeared day by day.

If you want something that’ll stretch closer to 15 to 20k km, the Maxxis Bighorn 2.0 has held up way better for me as my last set went just under 17k km before chunking.

Since switching to Maxxis DoubleDown, I've had no problems at all.

If you want as much choice of casing and compound as possible go Maxxis - DHRII or Dissector. Dissector is faster rolling and perfect for dry loose rocky.

For proper DH right now the most loved combo is Maxxis Assegai front / Minion DHR II rear, both in DH casing + MaxxGrip.

DHR II in the back, Assegai in the front is pretty good.

I used to buy CEAT, MRF and APOLLO before. For my Himalayan Apollo was the worst in terms of wet grip. Am trying Maxxiss RN and it's the best in Budget

Rekon is fantastic front tire for light trail/technical XC

If you know how to handle your bike the rekon race is fine up front. I raced that with an aspen out back at the 50 mile xc race up in Bend where it was dusty all day. I was also passing many people on the downhills.

I ride with 2.35" tires front and rear on my Ripmo, one that's a little beefier up front (Schwalbe Nobby Nic) and something that rolls better in the rear (Schwalbe Racing Ralph).

The bike came with Maxxis Assegai front and rear and for the first few rides I regretted getting the bike because it felt like such a pig. The lighter tires make pedaling on flat sections and climbs *so much* more enjoyable, and I can still push it on the descents.
