Maxxis’
already excellent line of gravel tires is
getting an upgrade with the introduction of the company’s new compound, HYPR-X.
Combining the best technology from two of Maxxis’ existing compounds, the
low-rolling-resistance HYPR for road and the race-winning MaxxSpeed
for mountain, HYPR-X will be incorporated into new editions of Maxxis’ entire
gravel range.
Debuting
throughout 2025, these enhanced versions of the Receptor, the Reaver, the Rambler and the Ravager will deliver 19%
better cornering traction and 25% less rolling resistance. Other improvements
include the new, even stronger nylon to be used for the 120 TPI casing, which
will vastly increase tread durability, while the sidewalls will be safeguarded
from cuts and abrasions by Maxxis’ EXO Protection. All specs will be
tubeless-ready.
Designers
haven’t forgotten aesthetics in these new gravel tyres, either. All hot patches
will feature Maxxis’ latest branding in a subtle shade of gray with a bit of
orange for a stylish, sophisticated look. And in keeping with Maxxis’ ongoing
efforts to reduce plastic waste for increased sustainability, these tyres will
ship in recyclable paper packaging.
The Reaver and the Rambler with HYPR-X and new casing will
be available first in 700X45C, with other sizes debuting over the next three months. All
sizes of the Ravager and the Receptor are scheduled to roll out in the third
quarter of 2025.
