Positioned between the Assegai and the Shorty in the Maxxis gravity range, the 3rd generation High Roller combines an open center tread pattern with large, well-supported side knobs to withstand extreme cornering forces.

Its hybrid tread design provides the soil penetration of a wet weather mid-spike while retaining the cornering control and hard surface traction of a dry conditions tire.

The High Roller III was developed to meet the demands of modern downhill riding and has already secured a win at Mont Sainte Anne with Jackson Goldstone.

As part of Maxxis' ongoing efforts to reduce its environmental impact, the High Roller III will ship in new, fully recyclable packaging.

Compound

3C MaxxGrip
3C MaxxGrip compound uses the stickiest, slowest rebounding rubber the brand offers in a mountain bike tire. This high traction compound is the same one used by Maxxis' top World Cup Downhill and Enduro World Series athletes and is available in a variety of casing configurations to cover all riders.

• 3C MaxxGrip + EXO+ casing = All-around trail riding in wet/slick conditions
• 3C MaxxGrip + DD casing = Enduro racing and e-bikes
• 3C MaxxGrip + DH casing = Downhill racing and long travel e-bikes

Casing & Technologies

EXO+
EXO+ is Maxxis’ medium-duty puncture protection option suitable for all-around trail riding and lightweight e-bikes. We begin with a durable 60 TPI casing, add in our legendary EXO puncture protection layer in the sidewalls, and top it off with a small butyl insert around the bead. The tough casing and EXO material ward off damage from rocks and roots, while the butyl insert protects the tire from pinch flats and helps prevent rim damage.

DH
As the name implies, Downhill casing tires are designed for extreme use in all gravity applications from DH racing to bike park riding to free riding to long travel e-bikes. A Maxxis Downhill tire is made with two layers of the brand's durable 60 TPI casing material along with a large butyl rubber insert that extends from each bead into the sidewall. The butyl insert helps prevent pinch flats, protects the rim from impacts, and provides additional sidewall stability.

DD
DoubleDown (DD) is the brand's casing solution for enduro racing and e-bike use. Two layers of lightweight 120 TPI casing material are combined with a butyl sidewall insert to create a highly durable tire with more trail feedback than a DH casing tire. DoubleDown tires are marginally lighter than their DH counterparts, but it’s really the difference in “trail feel” that sets the two apart. Some riders may prefer the highly damped ride provided by a Downhill casing tire.

TR
Tubeless ready tires provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures, which improves traction; lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tire; and less chance of flatting because there is no tube. Tubeless ready tires are denoted by the letters “TR” on the sidewall.
