Reviews

Good service and nice tires.

"Good service and nice tires. No complaints."

Justin W. (4/5)

A good rear tire. Check measurements.

"As with most Maxis EXO tires, the Forekaster has held up to a lot of rocky trail abuse. The only issue is that it measures out slightly larger than other 2.4 tires and did not fit in the boost HT frame I transferred the tire too. I had to cut down the side knobs to be able to get a little more life out of the tire."

Jonathan R. (4/5)

Get the version2

"My new bike came with v1 that most owner felt inferior. The v2 is pretty awesome. Get v2, not v1."

Nick C. (5/5)

Solid aggressive trail tire

"Excellent grip and cornering stability, predictable transition to the side knobs. Surprisingly fast rolling speed given how aggressive the knobs are. Would work well as a front paired with a rekon rear. Dual compound seems durable and tough, quality as expected from Maxxis."

Zachary F. (5/5)

Great tire, great service.

"Shipping was very fast and price was right!"

Chad B. (5/5)

An big improvement over the previous version

"I ran Forecaster 2.35 on my Intense Sniper Trail on 30id rims as they were the stock tires. I had a mixed relationship with them. They did well on loose terrain, we’re pretty decent on wet terrain, but harsh on rocks. They were relatively light a fast-rolling. I ultimately replaced the rear with a Rekon and was happy enough with the setup. They seem to work better in NJ and PA than they did in Western Washington, where I lived when I first began riding them. I bought the new version, a 2.4 WT tire, when I picked up a new Kona Hei Hei CR. It came with Rekon Race tires, which are useful only for racing, really. I replaced them with the new Forecaster on the front and a regular Rekon on the rear. The Rekon is heavier, considerably so, than it’s predecessor, but it is a much more comfortable and stable tire with improved grip. Now, it’s not just a tire that is good enough not to remove as an OE tire. It’s actually good enough to buy."

Great service

"Fast delivery, great product"

Q&A

Are the for an ebike? What's the E mean on the sidewall?
I wouldn't, that's a lightweight tire. Not sure what the E means, EXO is their lightweight casing.
Is this the gen2 version of the Forecaster?
Yes, this is the Gen 2 version. It’s been a great tire, so far.
