The reinforced XC racing tire for dry conditions + mixed terrain

Sidewall reinforcement, fast-rolling center tread, aggressive cornering, and an ultra-durable construction – this is the tire for XC trails that mix hardpack with root lattices, rocks, and puncture-causing trail debris. The Mezcal XC Trail is engineered for speed that doesn’t deflate just because you take a hit in the sidewall.

The continuous center line features offset extensions that are siped to multiply the number of edges propelling you up the trail, and the rear siping on the shoulder knobs is angled for fast cornering on hard, slippery surfaces. For climbing, cornering, or careening down hill, no tire rides like the Mezcal.

Technology explained

The Mezcal XC Trail blends four Graphene-infused compounds to minimize rolling resistance on the center strip and maximize confident grip on the shoulders. The 120-TPI nylon XC Trail TLR casing is durable and supple, and the abrasion-resistant structure is reinforced with additional sidewall protection.

01

Graphene 4C Compound

Rubber, infused with Graphene in a graduated schedule of four compounds across the rolling strip and shoulders. Two stabilizing base compounds boost puncture resistance and create a foundation for climbing, braking, and cornering loads. The trail-side compounds reduce rolling resistance, boost traction, and get tacky on switchbacks and off-camber sections, wet or dry.

02

XC-Trail TLR Reinforced 120-TPI Casing

A reinforced racing casing, the XC-Trail TLR combines a durable, supple 120-TPI nylon construction with additional protection on the sidewalls. Responsiveness, muted chatter, and supple trail feel with a little extra anti-puncture insurance – when XC gets gnarly, the XC-Trail TLR goes off.

03

Trail Breaker

Additional shielding to reinforce the sidewalls against lateral rock hits, pernicious thorns, and random trail debris. The breakers are lightweight 120-TPI nylon, proving that heavy protection doesn’t have to be heavy on the scale.

Crazy fast

Coming from factory tires to these it is amazing how much faster these tires are. They are okay at climbing rock gardens but fantastic at everything else.

I love my Mezcals! Second set, first choice!

I love these tires, fast and grippy in the corners.

Awesome tires

Lighter and faster than the tires they replaced and still tons of grip. And after two days on sharp rock, they’re holding up well. What else could you ask for?

Didn't hold up on XC race

My son rode around 6 miles, then tire got ripped on a rock. Mind you, these are high school NICA races in Ohio, not Utah, so should have held up under these light XC conditions. Very disappointing.

Not yet installed

Anxious to install. Haven’t had a chance to. They look high quality. Stay tuned
