The updated Maxxis Shorty mountain bike tire is fantastic for all things mud, dust, and deep loam. Riders are handsomely rewarded on the fast and loose bits, though the tires are heavy and take some work to get rolling.
Singletracks has tested 70+ mountain bike tires over the years, and these are some of our favorites for all types of riding from gravel and downcountry to trail and gravity riding.
