Maxxis Ravager Tires

While the Ravager is designed for off-road and gravel, the center knobs are spaced to allow for decent rolling efficiency on pavement. However, you will notice more road noise and vibration compared to a slick or semi-slick tire.

Yes, these are tubeless-ready tires. Running them tubeless is recommended to take full advantage of the lower pressure capabilities and the puncture-resistant EXO casing.

The 120 TPI (threads per inch) casing is higher than standard tires, which makes the tire more supple and flexible. This allows the tire to conform better to uneven terrain, resulting in a smoother, more comfortable ride.

The EXO protection is designed to handle sharp rocks and debris, significantly reducing the risk of sidewall cuts. It is a robust choice for gravel and light singletrack, though it is not as heavy-duty as tires built specifically for extreme downhill mountain biking.

The aggressive, square-edged knobs are spaced well to shed mud effectively. They offer reliable traction on loose or damp surfaces, though they are not a dedicated mud tire for deep, sticky clay.

These are 700c tires, so they will fit most standard road and gravel rims. Just ensure your rim width is compatible with a 40mm tire and that your frame has sufficient clearance for the wider profile.
