The Maxxis High Road SL is the ultimate competition and training tire, designed for demanding cyclists seeking the optimal combination of low rolling resistance, exceptional grip, and maximum lightness.
The High Road SL incorporates the latest Maxxis innovations to guarantee top-level performance:
170 TPI / ONE70 (Cassette):
The tire uses a casing with an extremely high thread count of 170 threads per inch (TPI).
ONE70 technology refers to this specific casing, which is one of the lightest and most supple in the Maxxis range.
Benefit: Ensures superior comfort, low rolling resistance, and excellent tire flexibility to adapt to road imperfections.
HYPR-S (Compound):
The "S" version (for Speed) of their high-performance HYPR compound.
Advantage: Offers the lowest rolling resistance possible in the Maxxis range, without compromising crucial cornering grip, especially on dry surfaces.
K2 (Puncture Protection):
An integrated puncture protection layer beneath the tread.
Advantage: Significantly improves cut and puncture resistance, while being lighter and more flexible than other protective materials, thus maintaining the supple qualities of the 170 TPI casing.
