Maxxis Dissector 27.5×2.4 Trail Tire – Folding Tubeless Ready EXO Protection

The Dissector Mountain Tire from Troy Brosnan is engineered to redefine performance on aggressive trails and technical descents. Designed as a rear-specific tire for riders seeking speed without sacrificing control, its innovative tread pattern balances high-speed efficiency with world-class cornering precision. At its core lies a meticulously crafted centerline tread: heavily ramped knobs slice through resistance on straightaways while maintaining sharp edges along their flanks for instant braking power and grip during sudden stops. The tire’s secret weapon? Strategic siping within each knob enhances flexibility under load, expanding surface contact during deceleration and smoothing transitions to the robust outer edge blocks when carving through tight turns. A dual-channel system flanking the central tread ensures debris is expelled efficiently, even at high speeds—a critical advantage on loose or muddy terrain.

Built for durability and versatility, this 27.5″ tubeless-ready clincher combines a 60 TPI casing (50 PSI optimal) with reinforced sidewall flat protection to handle rugged conditions confidently. Weighing in at 800g and featuring a folding bead design, it strikes an ideal balance between lightweight performance and rugged reliability. Whether bombing downhill trails or tackling all-day epics on rocky singletrack, the Dissector’s design prioritizes rider confidence—offering sharper cornering than tires lacking dedicated edge blocks and smoother braking than those without its tapered knob architecture.

Key Advantages vs Competitors:
– Cornering Precision: Outperforms generic all-around tires with its dedicated edge block array for tighter radius control
– Braking Performance: Ramped/edged hybrid knobs provide stronger stopping power than purely aggressive tread patterns
– Weight-to-Performance Ratio: Lighter than comparable reinforced tires while maintaining sidewall durability
– Debris Management: Superior mud-shedding capability compared to dense tread configurations

Engineered specifically for rear-wheel use on mountain bikes (27.5×2.4″), this black-hued tire excels where speed meets technical terrain—ideal for trail riders chasing podium-level performance without compromising on grip or ride quality.
