Maxxis Pace Tires

No, the Maxxis Pace is designed specifically for hardpack and loose-over-hard terrain. Its low-profile tread pattern lacks the deep lugs necessary to clear mud or provide grip in soft, wet conditions.

Yes, these are Tubeless Ready (TR) tires. You can set them up tubeless with sealant to reduce weight, lower your tire pressure for better traction, and minimize the risk of pinch flats.

This model features Maxxis's EXO sidewall protection. It is a cut-resistant layer added to the sidewalls to help prevent tears from trail debris like rocks and roots without adding excessive weight.

The 2.1-inch width is a classic XC racing size that prioritizes speed and low rolling resistance. If you prefer a more cushioned ride or ride on very technical, rocky terrain, you might find a wider tire provides more stability.

The dual-compound rubber is engineered to balance two competing needs: grip and longevity. It uses a harder rubber in the center for faster rolling and durability, with softer rubber on the side knobs to maintain traction during cornering.

They are designed to fit standard 29-inch mountain bike rims. However, if you plan to run them tubeless, ensure your rims are also tubeless-compatible and taped correctly to create an airtight seal.
