MAXXIS Forekaster 60 TPI EXO Tubeless 29×2.40 MTB Tyre
Unleash the full potential of your trail bike with the MAXXIS Forekaster 29×2.40 MTB Tyre, the ultimate do-it-all solution for modern MTB Cycling. Originally designed as a formidable wet-weather option, the Forekaster has been completely redesigned to excel as a premier “downcountry” or aggressive short-travel trail tyre. It masterfully bridges the gap between fast-rolling XC tyres and grippier, heavy-duty enduro treads, making it the perfect choice for riders who demand speed on the climbs and unwavering confidence on the descents, regardless of the conditions.
The Forekaster is engineered to perform when the trail gets unpredictable. Its genius lies in a tread pattern that features densely packed, mid-height knobs to decrease rolling resistance and bite into a wide variety of terrains. The blocks are well-spaced to provide excellent mud-clearing capabilities, ensuring you maintain traction even when conditions turn sloppy. When you lean the bike into a corner, the large, aggressive side knobs dig in hard, offering exceptional and predictable cornering grip on everything from loose-over-hardpack to soft forest loam. This tyre inspires you to push your limits, knowing you have reliable control underfoot.
Built for the rigours of modern trail riding, this version of the Forekaster features MAXXIS´s renowned EXO Protection. This is an extremely cut- and abrasion-resistant layer added to the sidewalls, providing robust defence against sharp rocks, roots, and trail debris without adding excessive weight. It’s the peace of mind you need when navigating technical rock gardens. As a Tubeless Ready (TR) tyre, it allows you to run lower air pressures for a massive boost in traction and a smoother ride, all while significantly reducing the risk of pinch flats. This tyre is also rated for E-bikes (E25), making it a durable and reliable choice for pedal-assist mountain bikes. The folding bead construction keeps the weight down and makes for easier installation.
This 2.40 Wide Trail (WT) version is optimized for today´s wider internal rim widths (30-35mm), creating a perfect tyre profile that maximizes traction and cornering performance. Whether you´re tackling an epic all-day adventure, racing a multi-stage event, or just enjoying a fast lap on your local trails, the MAXXIS Forekaster is the versatile, high-performance tyre that won´t let you down.
