Tires Maxxis or Sailun

Maxxis Tires

Assegai is my favorite front tire but it is a little slow rolling. If you don't mind that then there aren't many better front tires.

Pros: many better front tires
Cons: little slow rolling

I have ridden the DHF exclusively since getting my bike. I fell in love with the grip when cornering, literally feels like the bike is on rails. I have never lost the front tire in any conditions.

Pros: grip when cornering

Sailun Tires

Buy the sailun Terramax HLT. We sell tons of those tires where I live in rural saskatchewan and they stand up well, get good tread life and have fairly decent winter traction for an all season.

Pros: good tread life, decent traction

Sailun Tires

I have just about 10k miles on my Sailun ERange and I have found them to be a great purchase. I noticed better traction in rainy/wet conditions and a slight decrease in noise. I just need to experience some snow and ice to see how they do.

Pros: better traction, less noise
Mileage: 16000 km

They're actually pretty good especially for the price in terms of snow and ice performance. Very comparable to the top brands. It's a bit louder though.

Pros: good snow and ice performance
Cons: a bit louder

I never get punctures with EXO. Problem I have is the sidewall flops when I lean into fast corners with tire pressures under 25psi and that makes the cornering feel unpredictable.

Pros: no punctures
Cons: unpredictable cornering

I don’t have enough experience on Spesh tires other than the Sworks Fasttrack/Renegade I bought last year on a similar sale. They weigh in at around 620g each in the 2.35 size, which is much lighter than my Rekon Race 2.4WT at 780g. Feels nice to lose that much rotational weight and the grip I found to be similar. Also similar efficiency. What I didn’t like was the flimsy sidewall. There’s a reason they are so light. Lots of tire squirm and feeling of folding over in turns unless I ran high PSI (+5PSI compared to the Rekon Race). This is on a 30mm IW rim. Also, I had to use my tire plug for the first time on the front tire (Fasttrack). I’ve gone back to a slow XC setup of Rekon/Rekon Race this year but with a race or two coming up I’m debating what to do. I’m intrigued by the Aspen/Rekon Race combo but Aspen’s weigh about the same as my Rekon Race.

Pros: similar efficiency, nice grip
Cons: flimsy sidewall, tire squirm
