Maxxis Rekon+ 27.5×2.80 – EXO+ 3C MaxxTerra TR Plus Mountain Bike Tire

The Maxxis Rekon+ 27.5×2.80 EXO+ TR is a wide, comfortable plus tire that delivers strong grip and good rolling efficiency on technical everyday trails, forest paths, and all-mountain rides. The 3C MaxxTerra compound provides a balanced combination of grip and durability, while EXO+ protection and the large air volume let you run low pressures without risking rim strikes.

Maxxis Rekon+ TR EXO+ 3C MaxxTerra 27.5×2.80 – a stable, versatile plus tire for trail and all-mountain riding

The Rekon+ is designed to deliver an excellent combination of grip, comfort, and rolling efficiency thanks to its wide 2.8” casing. The large air volume effectively absorbs vibrations and bumps, improving ride comfort on both dry trails and technical, rocky terrain. The Rekon+ is known for offering dependable grip while still rolling surprisingly easily for a plus-size tire—which is exactly why it works so well for everyday trail riding and faster all-mountain riding.

The fast-rolling center knobs provide good forward momentum on firm surfaces and reliable braking traction, even on steep sections. The L-shaped side knobs provide solid cornering grip, improving control, especially in turns and while leaning the bike. The tread pattern is designed to resist clogging, and the open knob layout helps the tire clear mud and debris in wet or muddy conditions.

The 3C MaxxTerra compound is Maxxis’s mid-level enduro/trail compound, offering more grip and damping than MaxxSpeed while rolling more easily than MaxxGrip. It is an excellent choice for all-mountain and trail riding, where tires need to combine versatility with durability. MaxxTerra enhances grip when cornering and on technical terrain while maintaining the tire’s longevity and rolling efficiency.

EXO+ protection combines SilkShield casing protection with EXO sidewall protection, providing a stronger, more robust construction than standard EXO. This construction improves puncture and cut resistance across the entire tire and increases sidewall support by up to 51%, making the tire an excellent choice for aggressive trail and enduro riding. EXO+ is also suitable for E-MTB use thanks to its greater torque resistance and stronger casing.

The Tubeless Ready construction uses Maxxis TR bead technology, with the entire bead covered in a layer of rubber to make sealing easier and minimize leaks during installation. As a plus-size tire, the Rekon+ particularly benefits from low pressures, with its large air volume and EXO+ construction providing confidence, grip, and comfort.

The Rekon+ is suited to riders looking for a wide, stable tire for technical trails, loose terrain, and varied trail conditions—without sacrificing performance on everyday rides.
