MaxxisRekon - 3C MaxxTerra - 29, 27.5 - EXO, EXO+ - E25 Rating, Tubeless | Light-Duty Trail Tire

My bike came with a Rekon on the rear so I wanted to match it on the front because of the weight and traction. A 120 tpi Rekon is what was advertised, but I received a 60 instead. The weight was significantly higher than the claimed weight too, so I had to return it for a refund. The review isn’t about the tire, rather about what I received instead.

I ordered the 3C version and received the cheaper, heavier DC version. C'mon guys...

I went tubeless with these tires and had no troubles. I put these tires on a 2018 Trek Fuel EX8 29 XT and I like the wider tires for grip. These tires let you run air pressures from 20 psi to 40 psi and I like to run in the low 20’s. When I wear these tires out I’ll more than likely by another set.

The tires I had before were noby nic 2.35.These tires have a lot more traction compared to them. I noticed in Sandy areas and on steep inclines my tire doesn't slip. When going down hill I run the tires between 20-25 psi, it feels more smooth going over bumps, and I feel that I can lean the bike more before the tire slips.The one negative I do have is that you do feel the weight of the tires especially on initial take offs, but I think its well worth the extra traction you get.One other thing, I haven't measured the tire but at 25 psi it doesn't look like a 2.6, it looks more like a 2.4

Size (width) runs a bit small.I’d say 2.5 vs 2.6But I have not put calipers on them.They hold up well to colorado rocks and traction for typical colorado riding is good.This spring has been very wet on the front range and they lose a little in the mud...but they are not aggressive mid tires are they...

Faster rolling than my High Roller II and Aggressor. The 2.6 has me around 20lbs on dirt trails and 22lbs on aggressive rock. They are lighter than both of those tires. Rekon 2.6 are responsive and planted in high speed aggressive trails.They are a bit of work to mount when new.

Great tire...stable and light. I use it as a front tire on my Bronson with the Maxxis DHR II on the back. Use it XC and DH...performed very well in wet and dry conditions. Only con is it gets a little unstable in deeper mud.

Great tire exactly what i ordered

Good looking tyre and traction is very good. Can be run at low pressure giving a great ride on heavy going. A bit expensive so time will tell if they are worth the price.

Das ist jetzt schon mein dritter MAXXIS Rekon und bin nach wie vor absolut überzeugt. Nicht nur im Gelände auf normalen Strecken oder Downhillabfahrten in Österreich, sondern auch auf dem Asphalt bietet der Reifen in Kurven einen sehr guten Halt. Habe bisher mit keinem anderen Reifen solche Schräglagen erreicht !Absolut weiter zu empfehlen !

Trattandosi di Maxxis ho creduto erroneamente che questo Rekon fosse una buona gomma, mi sbagliavo, è un pneumatico grande, con tassellatura appena accennata, molto morbido, che non regge basse pressioni, inadatto ad una e-bike.insomma: sconsigliato.

Montato con camera d'aria. Conforme alle aspettative. Ben fatto. Le 120 TPI si vedono e si sentono. Pneumatico resistente e robusto. Si avverte senso di consistenza quando si pedala. E' necessario tenere la pressione dei pneumatici più bassa in quanto essendo più rigidi si perde in confort. Consigliato.

Non ho ancora montato lo pneumatico ma provengo da molti anni di utilizzo di pneumatici mtb di questa marca sia da 29 che 27,5 e anche 26, poche forature e molta affidabilità!
