  • This video is my amateurish FRONT tire test of the Maxxis REKON 29x2.4 tire. It includes some technical specs and how the tire works as a front tire on dry Southern California terrain.

    Awesome review! As a newbie to the sport, and your given perspective in my tire choice. Im more confident and more knowable how to roll this on my rig 🫡 thanks indeed!

    I have a Trance as well and am considering the Rekon for the front and possible the rear, thanks for the great review!

    Just found this video. I have the same bike 2020 custom build and am running the same tire combo. So far loving everything. I am in Pennsylvania. Way different terrain than Southern California.

    Great review! I have the Rekon 29x2.6” tire on my fully rigid single speed mountain bike and love it! I think the Rekon is one of the best tires available.

    Love the soundscapes! Review was good too.

      To each his own i guess. I found the jingle bells in the background made me want to throat punch someone. Good thing no one else was around. I actually really enjoyed the review but actually had to pause the video twice to give my brain a break from those freekin bells!!! Great review of the tires though.

    On real-world MTB tracks, lower tire pressure results in lower rolling resistance - not higher pressure as you stated (yes, opposite of what we were told 5 years ago). This is due to rough terrain deflecting the entire wheel with higher pressure, whereas lower pressure allows the tire to deform and the wheel moves less. Less upward movement of the wheel results in less energy loss and therefore better rolling resistance. For very smooth surfaces the opposite is true (e.g. track cycling) but even normal road surfaces are rough enough to benefit in lower pressure, which is why Tour de France riders are now running much lower pressures than they used to (70 psi vs 110 psi a few years ago).

    Should really consider lowering that pressure to lower rolling resistance and increase grip.

    If that were my terrain, I'd get an even faster tire like the Ardent Race and something like a Holy Roller for the rear. I suppose you will have plenty of traction once you learn how to weigh/unweigh the wheels with the new tires.

    Your inner rim width should be 35mm then your wide tire could increase to 2.4 inch 😅
