Description

What technology does it use in its construction?

What is the intended use?

The mid-spike Shorty from Maxxis, is a gravity inspired favourite when the terrain gets loose and unpredictable.

If you have long challenging winters or just want the best traction possible in the harshest of conditions, be sure to have the Shorty in your arsenal. Perfect for a front tyre, or even as a pair for the optimal grip and cornering performance all day on the mountain.
