A light-duty trail tire designed to go fast in technical terrain. I will not say down-country (well, besides now) in this post.
Why every bike tire doesn't come with a tan wall is beyond me. Sidewall protection or not, look good, feel good = RIDE FAST!

This is my first time running a more "trail" tire vs. an enduro tire. I'm very happy with the noticeable speed on the flats and straights. I'm very impressed with the grip on corners and don't feel Maxxis gave them a great score in that category.
What's RAD
Tan wall
Dual compound, 3C MaxxSpeed, or 3C MaxxTerra options
EXO or EXO+ puncture protection options
Tubeless Ready (TR)
Front or Rear installation so you can be matchy, matchy
Not so RAD
You can't run the same Maxxis tires on your vehicle, but they do offer a vehicle line.
Kook Tip
Find a tire that fits your local trail system, not what the pros are riding. If you can run more of an XC/Trail tire at your local spot, try them vs an enduro set, you'll be blown away at the speed.
