Alison Dunlap designed the ADvantage as a high volume aggressive cross country tire that corners great on big side-knobs. It also climbs and brakes with authority thanks to the opposing parallelogram center tread design. Ramped center knobs keep rolling resistance minimal and the wide lug spacing sheds mud easily.

This is the best xc/trail tyre i have found.Its reliable dosent burp at lower pressures and seems to grip very well.Just did 2 days in wales on them first day it was dry and the second day was wet.Still lapped the same time so grips in the wet and dry.Its not super light but is true to size(well done maxxis)
