Maxxis High Road Clincher Tire – 700 × 28
The Maxxis High Road 700 × 28 is a pro-level road racing tire built for elite riders and serious enthusiasts who demand maximum speed without compromise.
At the core of the High Road is Maxxis HYPR compound, a full-silica rubber formulation engineered to deliver exceptionally low rolling resistance while dramatically improving grip in wet conditions. Compared to previous Maxxis compounds, HYPR provides 16% less rolling resistance and 23% better wet traction, all while maintaining the same level of durability—an uncommon balance in high-performance road tires.
A light, supple casing enhances ride feel and efficiency, allowing the tire to conform to the road surface for better control at speed. Beneath the tread, integrated puncture protection helps guard against flats without dulling road feedback—critical for racing, fast group rides, and high-mileage training.
Designed for riders who prioritize speed, confidence, and precision handling, the High Road performs when the pace is high and the margins are small.
