maxxicross EN tire
Maxxis has this new enduro tire out and I have not heard any reviews on it yet. I saw one at the endurocross race in WA last fall and it sure looks like an interesting idea. Soft compound, similar "flat" surface area like a trials tire with a more knobby oriented pattern.
I might just pull the trigger and give it a try as I have not found any reviews anywhere. http://www.maxxis.com/MotorcycleATV/Off-road.aspx |

I would be interested in seeing your review. What do you normally run for a rear tire?

Similar knob pattern to the FIM spec tyres that come on euro bikes, and what is used at the WEC and ISDE, the side knobs are chunkier though

The maxxcross EN looks exactly like my Michelin enduro comp III that came on my '10.
FIM height knobs, 140/80 size. If you look under the Dualmaxx, the pic looks just like a Pirelli MT21...

It is an interesting design and now that you mention it, it does look very similar to the some of the euro tires.
I currently run Perelli MT43 trials tire and love it. Just want to try something that I can hit the local GP track with and still have the great traction I get with the trials tire. I also run the Nuetech, so I can run super low pressure. What do others think of the Michelin enduro comp? |

first glance. i think it looks and probably is going after the michelin S 12 xc market.

I was thinking about this for the next tire.
http://www.maxxis.com/MotorcycleATV/...l-SI-Rear.aspx I am running a trials tire now. I have a love/hate relationship with that.

I don't think the MAXXIS radial has ever been released.
I've had excellent luck with the front and rear SI. The Metzeler OEM front on my 2011 bike is short of amazing. |

do you guys get any Mitas tires in the US, there have been great reviews about traction and longevity with them down here.
I used to use the Maxxis IT tires and they were not bad, decent traction to a point and then they went haywire, but they do last long. I believe the SI gave better traction but do not last as long

i use mitas/trelleborg and wont use any other rear tire because i find the tenmasters to be an absolutly amazing tire with respect to traction and longevity, i use the green stripe(four ply) 120/80/18. ive tried the michelins and am not as impressed with there life span and dont hook up as well. the trelleborg tenmasters is called the mitas sport extreme now if im not mistaken since the trelleborg name was eliminated
