    Torch Tyre Tests

    “Maxxis tyres have been the choice for the entire BMX Talk race team throughout the 2017 season and they have worked great. The team chose the Torch model (which was a hard decision, as the DTH is also a superb choice) for both design and the sizes available and haven’t looked back since.” – RideUKBMX.com, December 2017

    Over the past few months, I’ve put in hundreds of kilometers riding on the road, and tracks with a variety of surfaces. From coarse and loose surface of pump tracks, to red clay corners at the local dirt jumps to high-speed tar and concrete corners at the race track the Torch tires are faultless… I’d be quite happy to fork over my hard-earned money to run the Maxxis Torch.” – Shane Jenkins, BMXUltra.com, April 2019
