vs
Tires Maxxis or MRF
Exo is too light of a sidewall. On the front go minimum with the new exo+. Grip wise the Assegai or dhf front or good bit Assegai rear is draggy and makes a difference on the high speed jump lines. I’d go dhr2 rear in the dd casing with a liner.
Pros: good grip
Cons: Assegai rear is draggy
I ran Exo for a year and ride on trails littered with basalt which is known to have very sharp edges, never had an issue with sidewall slicing.
Pros: no sidewall slicing
EXO is plenty for XC and most trail riding IMO.
Pros: plenty for XC
I run Exo casing and have had zero flats or issues. Had over 60 rides on the last pair. Would recommend
Pros: zero flats, no issues
I run exo casing on my dhrii & haven’t had any punctures
Pros: no punctures
I’ve run EXO tyres for years without any problems.
Pros: no problems
But its still a beefy maxxis tire. Im riding a dhr exo rear on my hardtail no insert and 18psi. Works great.
Pros: works great
I'm on my second set of maxxis and they're good for intermediate to hard stuff. If it's slippery out and I need to do a steep hill climb using momentum it's almost impossible, but I've never experienced a better softer tire yet so can't compare to anything else.
Pros: good for intermediate, hard stuff
Cons: slippery hill climb impossible
First don't buy MRF Nylogrip FE. Very thin tyre despite being of the same size. It skids easily with a little lean and you won't be confident.
Cons: skids easily, very thin
Need to replace the front soon, I hate the Zappers the longevity is very good it lasts ages but the grip and breaking is pathetic.
Pros: very good longevity
Cons: pathetic grip, breaking
