Maxxis Shorty MTB Tire - 27.5"x2.4

After gathering years of data and feedback from our World Cup Downhill and Enduro World Series athletes, the Shorty was introduced in 2021. The knob layout has been altered to improve wet traction, cornering performance, and mud shedding abilities. The narrower 2.40″ casing improves frame and fork clearance for when things get really sloppy and reduces weight.
