MAXXIS Advantage
Alison Dunlap designed the ADvantage as a high volume aggressive cross country tire that corners great on big side-knobs. It also climbs and brakes with authority thanks to the opposing parallelogram center tread design. Ramped center knobs keep rolling resistance minimal and the wide lug spacing sheds mud easily.

MAXXIS Highroller
Our most popular and versatile mountain tire, the High Roller’s ramped leading edges roll fast, while the side lugs offer stability at speed and a sharp edge to hold corners. The grooved center knobs provide straight-line control. The High Roller’s tread design translates well to all mountain bike disciplines, including downhill, cross country, and freeride.

MAXXIS Medusa
Inspired by our professional European cross country racers for racing on muddy terrain. Small profile is lightweight and cuts through loose terrain, while the spiked tread pattern works to find traction through the mud. The widely spaced tread pattern resists packing by shedding mud and loose, damp soil. The Medusa performs well in mud and the low profile also makes it an excellent choice for lighter riders.
- Widely spaced cleated knob design – front or rear
- Loose terrain, wet, and muddy conditions
- Low volume mud tire
MAXXIS Ignitor
The Ignitor tread pattern was designed for the most discerning professional racers and has laid claim to multiple World Cup victories. The well-spaced tread pattern fills in nicely to provide low rolling resistance in the straights, while the ramped pentagonal knobs provide excellent traction in the corners and in medium soil.
- Directional ramped pentagon knob design – front or rear
- Excellent multi-condition performanc
- Lightweight Ultimate Sidewall Technology (Tubeless available)
MAXXIS Larsen TT
The TT works on a vast number of terrains and conditions, which is why it is the favored tread of so many of our pro dual riders. The TT hooks up well because each small, square lug in the tread pattern is ramped to roll easily, yet tightly spaced so more knobs are making contact with the ground. Thus, the contact patch is effective on a wide variety of surfaces.
- Ramped square-knob design – front or rear direction specific
- Low rolling resistance
- Lightweight Ultimate Sidewall Technology
