Description
The all-new MaxxSpeed compound for the Maxxis cross country (XC) line. The new MaxxSpeed uses silica as a filler in the rubber polymer creating a compound that performs better across the board compared to the old 3C MaxxSpeed. Racers benefit from reduced rolling resistance and improved wet traction.
DEVELOPMENT:
Nino Schurter is the greatest XC racer of all time with more World Championship and World Cup Overall titles than any other rider in history. Nino obviously has elite fitness and incredible skills, but to keep winning at the highest level takes the best equipment available. Maxxis engineers worked closely with Nino and the SCOTT-SRAM team to develop and test the new MaxxSpeed compound.
The use of three different durometers of rubber in a single tire–Maxxis’ 3C technology–set our mountain bike tires apart from the competition over the past two decades. But when it was time to develop a new topshelf XC compound, we focused on performance above a specific number of compounds. Maxxis engineers used knowledge gained from the development of our full-silica road racing compound and began testing formulations suited to off-road use.
In our lab tests, the new MaxxSpeed compound had over 30% lower rolling resistance compared to the previous version. Translated into real world performance, tires with the new MaxxSpeed compound can save a rider up to a minute over the course of a 90-minute XC race. That’s a huge advantage in the modern era of World Cup XC where the time gaps are tight and races often end in sprint finishes.
Once it was proven in the lab, Nino and the SCOTT-SRAM team tested the new MaxxSpeed on the world stage. The new MaxxSpeed compound racked up World Cup and World Championship wins over the last few seasons demonstrating its performance. That same world-beating rubber is now available to all racers.
