MAXXIS Tire Rambler 28 | 700x40C DualCompound TR SilkShield

The Rambler is a real gravel bike tire. It has the volume you need for good comfort and the profile you need for speed and control. The slanted, narrow center lugs roll excellently on hard ground, open side lugs ensure predictable cornering behavior in different ground conditions.

Tubeless Ready (TR)
tube tires have many advantages: You can drive with less air pressure. This gives better traction and reduces rolling resistance. And where there is no tube , the risk of punctures is also reduced. MAXXIS TR tires are better prepared for mounting with sealant than other tubeless ready tires. The bead of the TR tires is completely covered with a rubber layer like a real UST tube . As a result, tube installation is successful for all rims with standard dimensions the first time you pump it up and with little liquid. Normal MAXXIS MTB tires can also be mounted tubeless with sealant like tires from other manufacturers, as the carcass fabric is very dense.
However, only the new MAXXIS TR models are officially approved for tubeless assembly and guaranteed by MAXXIS. The tubeless assembly of other models is at your own risk.

Note: We strongly advise against the use of sealant containing ammonia. Ammonia has been shown to attack the carcass and, depending on the amount used, can weaken it by up to 30% after just a few months.

SilkShield Protection
SilkShield provides Silkworm protection all around, from rim to rim, preventing cuts and other defects on tire sidewalls and under the tread.

DualCompound
Two different rubber compounds are processed into a tread strip. We plan the arrangement of the mixtures according to the desired properties of the tires.
