Product Description A true all-rounder: the Maxxis Ardent Race Folding Tyre. The Ardent Race fills the gap between the Ikon and the Ardent, bridging the divide between a fast XC tyre and a trail tyre. Its tread pattern is of medium height, with narrow centre lugs that provide ample space for good self-cleaning and are bevelled for lower rolling resistance. The side knobs are angled and offset, biting into the ground on turns. This makes the Ardent Race the ideal tyre for all-round use and on the trails. Note from the manufacturer: Maxxis strongly advises against the use of ammonia-based sealant. Ammonia has been proven to attack the carcass and can weaken it by up to 30% after only a few months, depending on the amount used. Guidelines for replacing E-bike components: Before you replace components on your e-bike, please read through the guidelines for component replacement for CE-marked e-bikes/pedelecs with pedal assistance. Specifications: Application: All Mountain, Enduro Type: folding tyre Tubeless System: Tubeless Ready Technical Information: Rubber Compound: 3C MaxxSpeed Carcass: 120 tpi Sidewall: EXO Protection Models: 27.5x2.2 Dimensions: 27.5 x 2.2" ETRTO: 56-584 Manufacturer Number: 1052 27.5x2.35 Dimensions: 27.5 x 2.35" ETRTO: 60-584 Manufacturer Number: 1137 Technology: 3C MaxxSpeed At Maxxis, the 3C tread is moulded from 3 different rubber compounds in one piece and is not subsequently assembled from two strips. Therefore, the treads can be shaped exactly according to the requirements of the respective tyre model, thus optimising the riding characteristics. Maxxis's fastest 3C compound, for XC and some All Mountain/Enduro tyres, was designed with a hard base and a fast compound in the middle of the tread to have the lowest rolling resistance. However, with the grippy compound along the sides of the tyre it also offers superior grip in corners, even in the wet. Its long durability is also a typical feature for Maxxis. EXO Protection This extremely cut and abrasion resistant material protects the sidewalls of various Maxxis MTB tyres. It is very tightly woven, light and very flexible. As a result, the performance of the tyres remains convincingly good. Tubeless Ready Tubeless tyres have many advantages: you can ride with less air pressure. This gives better traction and reduces rolling resistance. And where there is no tube, the risk of punctures is reduced. Maxxis TR tyres are better prepared for mounting with sealant than other "tubeless ready" tyres. The bead of the Maxxis TR tyres is completely covered with a rubber layer like a real UST tubeless tyre. As a result, tubeless mounting is successful for all rims with standard dimensions even during the first inflation and with little liquid.
