Fast rolling on hardpack with versatile trail grip.
The Maxxis Crossmark II is a wire-bead mountain bike tyre for cross-country and lighter trail riding. Its closely spaced centre knobs help maintain speed on hardpack, while the tread provides grip for braking and cornering.
More open spacing around the side knobs helps the tyre grip through turns. It can be fitted to either the front or rear wheel.

Inner Tube Required

Who Is It For?
The Crossmark II suits riders looking for a fast-rolling tyre for firm trails, gravel paths and general cross-country riding. It’s also a useful option for keeping a 26-inch mountain bike on the trails.
Our Thoughts
If most of your riding is on dry, firm surfaces, the Crossmark II offers a useful balance of rolling speed and cornering grip. For deep mud or loose, aggressive trails, a more open and pronounced tread may be a better choice.
