High Road vs Double Fighter III review

In this entry we are going to compare and review Maxxis High Road vs Continental Double Fighter III tyres. Both manufactured by different brands, Maxxis and Continental respectively, these tyres have been designed to be used for different purposes. Whilst Maxxis High Road is better for road activities, Continental Double Fighter III is a great choice if your needs are more aligned to Mountainbike Tires activities.

High Road

Double Fighter III

Maxxis’ all-purpose road race tire receives a refresh for 2021 with a new lighter weight casing, upgraded puncture protection, and a revised tread pattern. The result is a lighter, faster, and more durable High Road.

The ‘double’: light rolling and quiet on tarmac, yet grips on tracks and gravel roads.Robust rubber sidewalls make it impervious to damage even over rough ground.The ideal tire for transforming an off road bike to a nippy city racer.

ZK ZK is our next generation puncture protection material that is lighter, more flexible, and stronger than previous materials such as K2. Maxxis typically uses ZK as a breaker layer, situated underneath the tread in the middle of the tire.
Tubeless Ready Tubeless 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. Liquid sealants should only be used in the following types of tires: tubeless road, tubular, and tubeless ready. The use of liquid sealants in any other Maxxis tire will void the warranty.
HYPR Compound HYPR is a full-silica compound and our best-performing compound to date. Compared to our previous road racing compound, HYPR has 16% less rolling resistance with 23% better grip in wet conditions. Impressively, HYPR decreases rolling resistance and increases traction, all while keeping durability equal to our previous rubber compounds.
