Maxxis Forekaster
Best versatile tire for mixed condition trail riding.
This is the ultimate tire for riders who refuse to let sloppy, unpredictable trails dictate their pace. The widely spaced, siped knobs bite into loose mud with impressive confidence, though you will sacrifice a bit of rolling speed on hardpack compared to dedicated race rubber.
