Maxxis Tires

Rekon Race is super fast if it has enough traction for you. If not, Rekon isn't a bad tire to try. Not as fast, but it won't give out when you push it too hard.

Pros: not bad tire
Cons: not as fast

I have used the Rekon/Rekon Race combo and it is good for xc. I’m currently on Vittoria Barzo/Mezcal and I like them a little bit more than the Maxxis combo

Pros: good for xc

Rekon for the rear - Forecaster for the front. Super light - super fast - and good for all scenarios other than wet mud.

Pros: super light, super fast
Cons: other than wet mud

My favorite trail bike combo right now is a DHR2 front and dissector rear but I’m considering switching to rekon rear.

Pros: great speed

I ride Ardents for XC and some light trail riding. They're good tires until you hit mud and wet rocks. I recently tried a faster rolling tire but felt I went slower because the grip was drastically reduced. I think they're a good all around tire but they don't excel at any one thing.

Pros: good all around tire
Cons: don't excel at anything, bad in mud

Not my favorite tire but rubber and casing make a bigger difference than tread patterns. Especially in the roots and rocks. I'd take a 3c Maxxis anything over a Kenda every time.

Pros: 3c Maxxis better
Cons: Not my favorite tire

I love how lightweight and supple the DTH are. Really fast, even though they're quite baloony. But they are one of the worst tires when it comes to puncture protection: I already knew that they're prone to flats when I rode the 37-451 Silkworm version. But the 26" MaxxPro version is just as bad. Tiny glass shards find their way to the tube as if they went through butter.

Pros: lightweight and supple, really fast
Cons: poor puncture protection
