The "Goldilocks" Trail Tyre — Now E-Bike Certified

The Maxxis Forekaster sits in the sweet spot of the Maxxis mountain bike range. When the Rekon isn't enough tyre and a Minion is too much, the Forekaster is your answer. Designed for downcountry and short-travel trail bikes (100–130mm), it rolls fast, corners confidently, and handles a wide variety of Scottish trail conditions — from hardpack flow trails to loamy, rooty singletrack.

This version carries the E50 certification, making it fully legal and optimised for e-MTBs governed at up to 50 km/h. The EXO+ casing adds a butyl insert at the bead on top of the EXO sidewall protection, offering enhanced resistance to pinch flats and rim strikes — ideal for the added weight and torque of an eMTB.

Key Features

  • 3C MaxxTerra compound — triple compound construction balancing rolling efficiency with cornering grip and treadwear longevity
  • EXO+ sidewall protection — cut- and abrasion-resistant fabric plus butyl bead insert for pinch flat resistance
  • Wide Trail (WT) casing — optimised for modern 30mm+ internal width rims, improving tread profile and cornering predictability
  • Tubeless Ready (TR) — run lower pressures for better traction and comfort, with reduced puncture risk
  • E50 certified — meets EU ECE-R75 safety regulation for e-bikes up to 50 km/h
  • Folding bead — lightweight and easy to carry as a spare
  • Densely packed centre tread for rolling efficiency
  • Taller side knobs for confident cornering grip
  • Raised casing ridges promote mud clearing
