FAQ

How does the Rekon Race differ from the standard Rekon?

The Rekon Race uses the same overall tread pattern as the Rekon but with shorter, lower-profile knobs to reduce rolling resistance. The standard Rekon has taller knobs for more aggressive traction in technical trail terrain. The Race version is optimized for speed first.

Is the Rekon Race suitable for front and rear use?

Yes, the Rekon Race works well in both positions. Many XC racers run it front and rear on technical courses, or pair it as a front with a faster-rolling rear tire on smoother terrain.

Does the Rekon Race perform in loose or wet conditions?

The Rekon Race handles intermediate to moderately loose conditions well. Its tread is more capable in varied conditions than a pure semi-slick, though for consistently wet or very loose terrain a more aggressive option like the Rekon or Forekaster is a better fit.

Best For

XC racers and marathon riders on 29ers who want aggressive tread-pattern grip in a low-profile, fast-rolling tubeless tire capable of handling technical course conditions.
