All Terrane

High Road SL

Cyclocross tire for racing in all conditions

Our lightest and fastest road tire

The Maxxis All Terrane performs well in a broad range of cyclocross conditions from hardpack to grass to light mud. An open tread pattern clears debris and the ramped knobs reduce rolling resistance.

The Maxxis High Road SL is our lightest and fastest road racing tire, ever. Our HYPR-S compound decreases rolling resistance by 12% compared to the standard High Road.

Technologies

EXO An extremely cut-resistant and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of select mountain tires. This densely woven fabric is also lightweight and highly flexible, ensuring that the performance of the tire remains unaffected. Choose EXO Protection for exceptionally rocky, treacherous trails where the chance of sidewall cuts and abrasions is high.
Tubeless Ready Tubeless tires provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures, which improves traction; lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tire; and less chance of flatting because there is no tube. Liquid sealants should only be used in the following types of tires: tubeless road, tubular, and tubeless ready. The use of liquid sealants in any other Maxxis tire will void the warranty.

Technologies

HYPR-S Compound Building on the success of the HYPR compound which debuted on the original High Road, the new HYPR-S compound retains exceptional grip while decreasing rolling resistance by a further 12% compared to HYPR.
K2 Available in select tires, this Maxxis-exclusive fabric provides greater puncture protection than aramid. The addition of this lightweight and supple material ensures that ride quality and performance remain unsurpassed.
