Tires Maxxis or FULDA

Maxxis Tires

I ride on a DHR2 rear in DD casing and MaxxTerra compound, and an Assegai front in EXO+ MaxxGrip. Really good combo for the descents but a little bit slow on the climbs.

Pros: good for descents
Cons: slow on climbs

The Maxxis Ikon in dual compound would be a good choice. It won't have great grip on wet roots or rocks, but sounds like that's not a concern.

Pros: good choice
Cons: not great wet grip

Something like a maxxis ikon should roll great on the road and still work on trails.

Pros: roll great on road
Cons: null

They are nice tires that roll really well. Mud and other soft ground can be an issue with the low tread and cornering can be a bit iffy with minuscule side knobs and rounded profile.

Pros: roll really well
Cons: iffy cornering, soft ground

If you liked the XR4 the Rekon is probably the closest, or Ardent. It's worked well for me everywhere I've taken it from Duluth to Moab, and everything in between.

Pros: worked well everywhere
Cons: slow rolling

The Assegai has the best climbing traction I've ever had (used to run DHRIIs, which would be a good option as well).

Pros: best climbing traction

I've been riding my **Maxxis Rekon 2.4" 3C EXO** for about **700km / 435mi** now and even though I was not over the top impressed, the mix between low rolling resistance and decent grip in dry conditions was satisfying and totally met my demands - even on some rough, deep red (S2-S3) trails.

**On my last ride**, my impressions changed dramatically. The ground conditions might have been slightly looser than most of my rides but certainly nothing I havent already seen before or ridden on over the last couple of months.

After only a few kilometers, I felt **zero confidence in the tires to grip, they dealt scarily bad with loose (dry) trails** and I even crashed once

Pros: low rolling resistance, decent grip
Cons: zero confidence in grip
Mileage: 700 km

I've tried the Ardent in a 2.3 width as a rear tire, and wasn't a fan. It was prone to breaking loose easily in corners with little warning.

Pros: fast tire
Cons: prone to breaking loose
