With an aggressive tread on a high-volume casing, the Ardent was designed with great traction in mind. The Ardent doesn’t forget the racer, with large block-style side knobs offering numerous edges for high-speed cornering. With a wide variety of size offerings, the Ardent captures every trail rider’s needs. The Maxxis Ardent is a light-duty trail tyre that rolls fast in dry conditions. For a similar rolling speed with improved braking and cornering performance, check out the Rekon.
