The Rekon Race is a XC, Backcountry and Gravel racing favourite. The Rekon Race has low-profile tread design with closely packed tread blocks to reduce rolling resistance and give predictable handling on hard packed terrain.
While Maxxis recommend this tyre for cross-country riding and racing. The Rekon Race comes in a wide variety of sizes, casings and compounds which makes it a popular option for other disciplines of cycling where rolling resistance is important as durability. We often see the Rekon Race on bikepacking and adventure gravel set-ups, as well as ebikes that are travelling on mixed terrain like rail trails and gravel roads.
Characteristics: Extremely fast-rolling with minimal tread for maximum efficiency. Offers predictable handling for a race tire, but less aggressive grip than other models.
Suitable Terrain: Hardpack, groomed XC race tracks, and dry, fast-rolling trails. Ideal for the smoother XC trails found at venues like Stromlo Forest Park or WA’s Mudda Bindi bikepacking route.
Riding Style: Cross-country racers, marathon riders, and those who prioritize outright speed and minimal rolling resistance above all else.
Pushys Recommended Combo’s for the Maxxis Rekon Race:
- Rekon Race Front and Rear: A great all-rounder option for a fast rolling set up with good reliability, suitable for XC racing and bikepacking epics.
- Rekon Race Front / Aspen Rear: The ultimate XC race setup for dry, fast courses where every watt counts.
- Rekon Front / Rekon Race Rear: A common XC marathon choice, offering a slightly more forgiving front tire with the speed of the Rekon Race in the rear.
