Maxxis Rekon Plus Tire

The Rekon Plus excels in loose to moderate terrain, but it is primarily designed for technical XC riding rather than deep mud. While the aggressive tread provides solid grip, its tightly spaced center knobs may pack up in thick, sticky mud compared to a dedicated mud tire.

Yes, the Rekon Plus is Tubeless Ready. You will need to use tubeless-compatible rims, sealant, and valves to complete the setup, which helps reduce weight and allows you to run lower tire pressures for better traction.

The EXO casing is a lightweight, durable layer added to the sidewalls to resist cuts and abrasions. It offers a good balance of protection and suppleness, making it reliable for technical trail riding without adding excessive weight.

The Rekon Plus is versatile enough to be used on both the front and rear. Many riders prefer it as a rear tire paired with a more aggressive front tire, like the Maxxis Minion, for a balanced setup that offers fast rolling speed and confident cornering.

This tire is built for technical XC and aggressive trail riding. It is designed for riders who want a fast-rolling tire that doesn't sacrifice braking power or cornering stability when the trail gets steep or loose.
