The DH version of theMaxxis Shortywas an instant favourite of our World Cup DH racers. The single-ply version offers trail riders the same traction in a much lighter package.Today\'s World Cup downhill tracks are steep, technical monsters with ever-changing conditions. Our pros needed a mid-spike tyre that could handle dry, loose, blown-out corners as well as a bit of mud. TheShortyis that tyre. Large, tall and slightly staggered side knobs penetrate loose soil to provide predictable, stable cornering at warp speeds. The alternating pattern of the center tread features widely-spaced knobs to clear debris, and their square shape offers plenty of braking bite. For downhill mountain biking in gnarly, mixed conditions, theShortycan\'t be beat!Maxxis Shorty FeaturesMid Spike Tread DesignConditions: Loose, Wet, MudCornering Control: 1 2 34Rolling Efficiency:12 3 4Tyre SpecificationSize: 27.5 x 2.50 WTTPI: 60PSI: 60Bead: FoldingCompound: 3C Maxx TerraCasing: Single PlyTech: EXOTubeless ReadyWeight: 965g\"
