vs
Tires Maxxis or PHANTOM
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 ride Ardents for XC and some light trail riding. They're good tires until you hit mud and wet rocks. I recently tried a faster rolling tire but felt I went slower because the grip was drastically reduced. I think they're a good all around tire but they don't excel at any one thing.
Pros: good all around tire
Cons: don't excel at anything, bad in mud
Not my favorite tire but rubber and casing make a bigger difference than tread patterns. Especially in the roots and rocks. I'd take a 3c Maxxis anything over a Kenda every time.
Pros: 3c Maxxis better
Cons: Not my favorite tire
I love how lightweight and supple the DTH are. Really fast, even though they're quite baloony. But they are one of the worst tires when it comes to puncture protection: I already knew that they're prone to flats when I rode the 37-451 Silkworm version. But the 26" MaxxPro version is just as bad. Tiny glass shards find their way to the tube as if they went through butter.
Pros: lightweight and supple, really fast
Cons: poor puncture protection
