Review on Maxxis 700 Radiale Folding Tire by Lawrence Allison

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fast, smooth ride, durability can be an issue.

I've driven up to 1600 miles on the second tire and it still looks good. My first tire had a clean cut about a half inch long that ruined the tire after about 800 miles. I think it might be a strange apartment as I've never had an apartment like this before. The ride on these tires is incredibly smooth, which is important as I drive on gravel and compacted roads most of the time. I use this tire for the rear and a Vittoria Radiale for the front. I think the Vittoria rides a little softer, but it has a very soft wearing surface. I've only driven it about 700 miles using it in the rear compared to 2500 miles in the front. So far the Maxxisradiale seems to be a good tire but the verdict on its durability is yet to be judged.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Plug required
