With compound and casing options tailored to your riding style, it balances speed, grip, and reliability for consistent results in dry, rocky, or root strewn conditions. Key Features and Benefits: Redesigned side knobs with a larger footprint and refined sipes: Increases cornering stability and reduces deflection under heavy loads, resulting in more predictable handling and greater control. Split centre tread 3 knobs: Improves braking traction and allows better conformity to uneven surfaces, leading to stronger stopping power and enhanced terrain grip. Outward-shifted transition knobs: Creates a smoother changeover from centre to side knobs, providing consistent traction through lean angles and maintaining confidence mid-turn. Revised sipes across centre and side tread: Enhances grip while also reducing wear, delivering sustained performance and a longer tyre lifespan. Multiple compound options (MaxxGrip, MaxxTerra, Dual Compound): Allows tuning for maximum traction, durability or rolling efficiency, giving riders control over performance priorities. EXO and DoubleDown casing choices: Balances weight savings for lighter trail use or adds extra protection for aggressive enduro and e-bike demands, ensuring durability for the terrain. For riders seeking reliable speed with confident handling, this tyre delivers precise cornering, solid braking traction, and adaptable performance without sacrificing durability. The advanced tread layout and compound choices make it a dependable option for both front and rear setups, tailored to bike travel and terrain type. Choose a setup that matches your riding style and enjoy a tyre built to perform consistently in dry, rocky, and root-filled conditions. The Maxxis Dissector returns with a host of upgrades that improve performance across the board. Most notably the side knobs have been completely redesigned with a larger footprint and reworked sipes boosting stability and predictability in corners—especially on hard terrain. The new shape resists deflection under load increasing both durability and control. Side knob engagement is also quicker giving riders a more confident planted feel in turns. The center tread retains the familiar 2-3-2 layout but the center “3” has been split into individual knobs for improved braking traction and better terrain conformity. Transition knobs have been pushed outward creating a smoother more consistent feel as the tire leans over. Like the side knobs the center tread also benefits from revised sipes for enhanced grip and longevity. These updates make the Dissector an even more versatile option for short- to mid-travel trail bikes. It excels as a front tire on bikes with 130–140mm of travel especially when paired with a fast-rolling rear like the Forekaster or Rekon. On longer travel bikes (150mm+) it serves as a fast confident rear tire in dry conditions.
