Review on 🚲 MAXXIS Rekon Dual Compound EXO Tubeless Ready Folding Tire: Unleash Your Ride with Ultimate Versatility! by Dean Wildfang

Revainrating 4 out of 5

As expected in Sport

I ordered and received a Rekon 29 x 2.40 WT EXO TR tire marked M349RU and TB00017700 on the label. It is listed for a 30-35 internal width rim and I installed it on my front rim which has a 30mm internal width. The frame width when installed was 2.25 inches. By my standards, it weighs 900g, which is 50g more than the advertised weight of 849g. I needed a light, easy-rolling tire for technical climbing and loose and hard trails. I have ridden it several times and am happy with its performance in these conditions. This is a definite improvement over my well-worn Bontrager XR4. If its measurements were closer to 2.4 inches wide and 850g as listed I would give it a 5.

Pros
  • Everything great!
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
