Maxxis Dissector WT 3C MaxxGrip TR Downhill Tyre

Troy Brosnan wanted to create a unicorn of tyres. A tyre that rolls incredibly fast, cuts through corners with precision and, if necessary, decelerates accordingly. The starting point for this was the profile of the Rekon, Minion DHF and HighRoller II and designed by MAXXIS in close cooperation with Troy during the 2018 World Cup season. The downhill version of the DISSECTOR is ideal as a rear tyre, whether for racing or in the bike park.
The trail version also makes sense on the front wheel if you want a front wheel tyre that rolls easily and has good grip.

Wide Trail Casing (WT)
This special carcass construction optimizes the tread layout and tyre shape on today's wider rims. Traditional tyres are developed for narrow rims and get a too square shape on wide rims and thus a less than optimal performance.
WT tires are optimized for an internal rim width of 35 mm, but work excellently on all rims with an internal dimension between 30 and 40 mm.

Tubeless Ready (TR)
tube tyres have many advantages: You can drive with less air pressure. This gives better traction and reduces rolling resistance. And where there is no tube , the risk of punctures is also reduced. MAXXIS TR tyres are better prepared for mounting with sealant than other "tubeless ready" tyres. The bead of our TR tyres is completely covered with a rubber layer like a real UST tubeless tube . As a result, tube installation is successful for all rims with standard dimensions the first time you pump it up and with little liquid.
"Normal" MAXXIS MTB tyres can also be mounted tubeless with sealant like tyres from other manufacturers, as the carcass fabric is very dense.
However, only the new MAXXIS TR models are officially approved for tubeless assembly and guaranteed by MAXXIS. The tubeless assembly of other models is at your own risk.

Note: We strongly advise against the use of sealant containing ammonia. Ammonia has been shown to attack the carcass and, depending on the amount used, can weaken it by up to 30% after just a few months.

Dual ply casing
DH like downhill. Maxxis downhill tyres come with a double carcass for extra robustness that you urgently need in downhill use. Two layers of fabric are gathered and wrapped around the bead cores. The finished carcass then has four plies on the sidewalls and even 6 plies under the tread. This is how MAXXIS downhill tyres are made.

3C MaxxGrip
The well-known 3C downhill compound, which many of the best downhillers have trusted for years, is now called 3C MaxxGrip. 3C MaxxGrip offers the ultimate grip and cushioning properties for unrivaled downhill traction.
