Review on ๐Ÿšต Maxxis Ardent Tubeless MTB Tire: Superior Performance for All Mountain Bike Trails, with EXO Puncture Protection | Available in 26, 27.5 or 29 inch Sizes by Mark Cannon

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Too narrow at the edge. Extremely difficult to work with.

Good tyres, sure, but too tight on the rim and I can't wait for them to wear out. Especially since they appear to be throne magnets. One afternoon in my shop, I removed over 20 small spikes from the case with a magnifying glass. Yes, these tires have had more flats than any other tire I've ridden in my entire life. I don't know why because I ride the same trails all the time and avoid the spikes. In fact, my bike is now on the shelf in my shop, where it sat for a week while I checked for leaks. It's very slow, and I discovered it from the bubbles that grew out of this hole in a few days. SLIME didn't shut him up either. However, MAXXIS is permanently off my gear list.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Write later
