Maxxis High Roller III 29x2.40 WT 3C MaxxGrip EXO+ TR E25 Folding MTB Tyre

The Legendary High Roller Returns — Trail-Weight Grip for All Conditions

The Maxxis High Roller III sits between the Assegai and the Shorty in the Maxxis gravity range — the perfect front tyre when it's too wet for an Assegai but not quite muddy enough for a full spike. Its hybrid tread design delivers the soil penetration of a mid-spike in wet conditions while retaining the cornering control and hard-surface traction of a dry tyre. Already a World Cup winner at Mont Sainte Anne under Jackson Goldstone in its debut season.

This version uses the lighter EXO+ casing — single-ply 60 TPI with SilkShield bead-to-bead and EXO sidewall protection, improving puncture resistance by 27%, sidewall durability by 51%, and pinch flat resistance by 28% over standard EXO. Paired with 3C MaxxGrip, Maxxis' stickiest compound. E25 certified for e-bikes up to 25 km/h.

Key Features

• Hybrid tread design — open centre spacing clears debris; large, well-supported side knobs for extreme cornering forces
• 3C MaxxGrip compound — the stickiest, slowest-rebounding rubber Maxxis makes; used by World Cup DH and EWS athletes
• EXO+ casing — SilkShield bead-to-bead plus EXO sidewall for significantly enhanced flat and sidewall protection over standard EXO, in a lighter single-ply package
• Tubeless Ready (TR) — lower pressures for better traction, reduced puncture risk, and improved comfort
• E25 certified — suitable for e-bikes with pedal assist up to 25 km/h
• Wide Trail (WT) casing — optimised for 30–35mm internal width rims
• Folding bead — lighter than the DD version; easier to pack as a spare
• Excellent shoulder-season and mixed-condition tyre for Scottish trail riding
