Maxxis reveals the High Roller III. Can this latest version of the downhill MTB tire bring the once-renowned model back from the dead?

The High Roller II has been a staple of the Maxxis range for well over a decade, in that time it's garnered a loyal following and its fair share of racing success. The tire that was once a stalwart of downhill MTB racing (and ran on gravity-orientated bikes everywhere) has since been superseded by the likes of Maxxis' Minion DHF, Assegai, and Shorty.

Maxxis has now officially revealed the successor in the High Roller lineage. The new MK III version features a redesigned tread pattern and a new purpose to bring it back up to date with the best mountain bike tires.
