Find the perfect 27.5" mountain bike tire for your rides atEscapa, from our wide selection of top brands. The Maxxis Forekaster 27.5 3CT/EXO+/TR tireprovides excellent traction on wet trails and firm terrain.
TheMaxxis Forekaster 27.5 3CT/EXO+/TR tireisdesigned specifically for modern short-travel mountain bikes (100mm–130mm), also known as the “downcountry” segment. Designed to be a “Goldilocks” tire, the new Forekaster (launched in July 2022) rolls faster than a Minion or even the Dissector, but offers more predictable traction in corners, on climbs, and during braking than the Aspen or the Rekon.
3C MaxxTerra
Maxxis’ 3C MaxxTerra compound is a mid-range triple-compound configuration used across our entire line of mountain bike tires. The 3C MaxxTerra compound offers more traction than the 3C MaxxSpeed, but provides better tread wear and lower rolling resistance than the MaxxGrip, making it ideal for riding trails in all conditions.
EXO+ Technology
EXO+ is Maxxis’s mid-range puncture protection option, suitable for general mountain biking and lightweight E-Bikes. We start with a durable 60 TPI casing, add our legendary EXO puncture protection layer to the sidewalls, and top it off with a small butyl insert around the Talon. The sturdy casing and EXO material protect against damage from rocks and roots, while the butyl insert protects the tire from pinch flats and helps prevent rim damage.
Tubeless Ready
Maxxis Tubeless Ready (TR) tires offer better traction, lower rolling resistance, and fewer punctures by eliminating the inner tube. Use lower pressures to improve grip and control. Look for the “TR” mark on the sidewall.
