Product Description
Feel the grip when the trail turns nastyWhen the track goes saturated and spicy, you want a tyre that hooks up and keeps moving. The Gen 2 Shorty mid-spike does exactly that. It digs in on wet loam, sheds mud fast and keeps you confident through off-camber exits and steep, sloppy corners. It’s the kind of tyre that makes rough days rideable.Why this tyre helps you ride harderYou’ll notice sharper bite under braking and a planted feel in turns. The new tread and narrower 2.40" width clear mud more easily, so the tyre stays alive instead of turning into a clay ball. It still rolls well for a mid-spike, so you don’t trade speed for traction. In short: better grip, less clog, and a livelier ride when the going gets tough.Design that earns its keepRedesigned tread pattern developed from World Cup DH and EWS rider feedback — tuned where it matters.The old double-wide centre knob is split into two knobs for cleaner contact and more consistent traction.Corner knobs are beefed up for more support and predictable breakaway.Extra siping adds bite under braking and when carving wet corners.Raised casing ridges push mud away from the tread for faster self-cleaning.Narrower 2.40" width improves mud clearance and trims weight — DoubleDown/DH specs are about 5% lighter.How it performs on the trailIt feels sticky without being sluggish. Braking locks in sooner. Cornering feels controlled and progressive, not grabby or sudden. On tight, technical sections the tyre stays composed; on open, muddy straights it keeps rolling with less drag than a heavy bore tyre.Key Features:Compound: 3C MaxxGrip (softest rubber for ultimate grip)Breaker: DoubleDown (two 120 TPI layers with butyl insert for support and protection)Tubeless Tyre — Tubeless Ready constructionBead Type: FoldingSize: 27.5 x 2.4 inches (WT)TPI: 120x2Weight: 1136 gBest for: Loose, Mud, Wet conditionsPerformance ratings: Cornering Control 3/4 • Rolling Efficiency 4/4Note: Tubeless tyres let you run lower pressures, improve traction and reduce rolling resistance. Use liquid sealant only in Tubeless Road, Tubular and Tubeless Ready tyres; using sealant in other Maxxis tyres will void the warranty.Ready to rideThis Shorty Gen 2 is honest and effective — built for wet races, sloppy laps and winter shuttles. Fit it, lower the pressure, and feel the difference. See you on the muddy side.
