The Maxxis High Road Gen.3 700x30C tyre is the ideal choice for road cyclists seeking the perfect balance of lightweight performance, low rolling resistance, and dependable flat protection. This third-generation iteration of Maxxis' flagship competition tyre refines every detail to deliver top-tier performance on training rides and race days alike.

Featuring a high-density 150 TPI casing, the tyre remains supple and responsive, conforming seamlessly to road micro-imperfections. Paired with the top-spec HYPR rubber compound, it guarantees exceptional cornering traction on high-speed descents and wet or slick asphalt.

Key Technologies:

• HYPR Compound: Purpose-built for elite road tyres, this full-silica formula delivers a 16% reduction in rolling resistance and a 23% increase in wet cornering grip compared to standard compounds.

• K2 Puncture Protection (Kevlar® Composite): An exclusive breaker layer placed beneath the tread made of Kevlar® composite fabric. It offers superior puncture and cut resistance compared to traditional nylon fabrics while keeping weight low and ride quality smooth.

• 150 TPI Casing: High thread count delivers a flexible, lightweight casing that transfers pedaling power directly to the road.

• Tube-Type Design: Engineered specifically for traditional use with inner tubes (butyl, latex, or TPU).
