The EXO protection layer acts like a shield, protecting the tire from cuts and abrasions on various terrains. Being tubeless - ready, it allows you to use lower air pressures. This not only cuts down the risk of flats but also enhances overall performance. Whether you're in a race or exploring light trails, the Rekon Race offers outstanding reliability and speed.
Using this Maxxis Rekon Race tire is easy. First, if you're using it as a rear tire, pair it with a more aggressive front tire for the best performance. When setting up, since it's tubeless - ready, you can lower the air pressure to reduce the risk of flats and improve grip. For day - to - day use, check the tire pressure regularly, especially before a long ride or a race. If you notice any cuts or abrasions, don't worry too much as the EXO protection layer gives it good durability. But if the damage is severe, it might be time to replace the tire. Clean the tire after each ride to keep it in top shape. Use a mild soap and water, and avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the tire. This way, your tire will serve you well for a long time, providing reliable speed on all your adventures.
