Maxxis Velocita Tubeless Tire

Maxxis Velocita Tubeless Tire Info

The Maxxis Velocita is a high-volume, tubeless-ready gravel tire engineered for riders who demand blazing roll on pavement with dependable grip on hard-packed dirt roads. Its sleek, semi-slick profile strikes the perfect balance between speed and cornering confidence, making it ideal for both all-road and adventure-gravel setups.

Featuring a knurled center tread that transitions into a file-edge pattern, the Velocita delivers precise power transfer under load and reassuring bite when leaning into corners. Independent testers praise its lightning-quick rolling performance on hard-packed surfaces, often preferring it as a rear tire to maximize efficiency on mixed-terrain rides.

Available in your choice of 60 TPI or 120 TPI casing—and built with Maxxis’s signature dual-compound rubber—the Velocita strikes an ideal balance between supple ride feel and long-term durability. For added peace of mind, select SilkShield bead-to-bead protection or EXO cut- and abrasion-resistant sidewall fabric without sacrificing weight.

Select Velocita models carry the Tubeless Ready (TR) designation, allowing you to run lower pressures for enhanced traction, reduced rolling resistance, and self-sealing puncture protection when used with compatible rims and sealant. This setup not only smooths out rough surfaces but also dramatically lowers the chance of flats on long gravel days.

Weighing in at just 380 g for the 120 TPI EXO variant and 425 g for the 60 TPI SilkShield version, the Velocita ranks among the lightest tubeless gravel tires in Maxxis’s range—so you can climb, sprint, and roll fast without excess weight holding you back.
