The Maxxis Aspen AT (All Terrain) takes the proven speed of the classic Aspen XC tread and elevates it to conquer a wider variety of trail conditions. Designed for modern 32-inch wheel platforms and wide 30mm internal width rims, this 2.40" volume tyre offers an expanded footprint that enhances traction and rider confidence when tackling technical cross-country courses.
Equipped with Maxxis' top-shelf MaxxSpeed compound, this tyre reduces rolling resistance by roughly 25% compared to previous 3C formulations while significantly improving wet-weather grip. The flexible 120 TPI casing conforms smoothly to terrain irregularities, while integrated EXO sidewall protection defends against sharp rocks and abrasions without adding excess rotational mass.
Complete with a Tubeless Ready (TR) folding bead and an E-50 e-bike safety rating, the Aspen AT delivers explosive acceleration, high cornering control, and dependable puncture resistance for competitive racers and high-speed trail riders alike.

✅ XC Competitors & Marathon Racers: Exceptional rolling speed paired with elevated shoulder knobs provides ultimate efficiency on race day.
✅ 32-Inch Wheel System Owners: Specifically designed to fit modern large-diameter 32" cross-country rims and frames.
✅ All-Terrain Hardpack Riders: Offers a more versatile tread height than ultra-slick tyres, making it confident across loose-over-hardpack and dry trails.
❌ Deep Mud & Wet Conditions: The fast-rolling, low-profile tread design can pack up quickly in thick, sticky mud.
❌ Aggressive Enduro or Downhill: Lacks the tall tread blocks, double-ply casings, and heavy reinforcement needed for rocky downhill riding.
❌ Standard 29er Wheelsets: Built exclusively for 32" wheel systems; it will not fit traditional 29", 27.5", or 26" mountain bike wheels.
To get the most performance out of a 2.40" volume tyre, pair it with a 30mm internal width rim and run lower air pressures (typically between 18–22 PSI depending on rider weight). Running lower pressures creates a wider contact patch, letting the MaxxSpeed compound mold over terrain for maximum traction without squirming!
