K2 (KEVLAR COMPOSITE)
Available in select tires, this Maxxis-exclusive fabric provides greater puncture protection than both standard Kevlar and Vectran. The addition of this lightweight and supple material ensures that ride quality and performance remain unsurpassed.
ZK
ZK is our next generation puncture protection material that is lighter, more flexible, and stronger than previous materials such as K2. Maxxis typically uses ZK as a breaker layer, situated underneath the tread in the middle of the tire.
HYPR COMPOUND
HYPR is a full-silica compound and our best-performing compound to date. Compared to our previous road racing compound, HYPR has 16% less rolling resistance with 23% better grip in wet conditions. Impressively, HYPR decreases rolling resistance and increases traction, all while keeping durability equal to our previous rubber compounds.
