MTX Red and Gold Label HD Brake Pads
Just as the Moto industry does, so does the mountain bike industry. MTX has run with this trend and developed an upgrade brake pad compared to basic OEM replacements.
MTX has two types of upgraded brake pads available. In fact, that's the only thing MTX does, brake pads; simplicity at it's finest. There are two versions, MTX Red label and the MTX Gold Label (pictured here). The Gold Label HD ceramic brake pad was designed with the e-mountain bikes & big-hit bikes in mind. Made with proprietary blends of Kevlar®, MTX CeraEVO® ceramic materials and other modifiers, these pads are quiet, durable, alleviate heat induced brake fade, and implement the feeling of control at the lever while maximizing power.

Fox Racing Mud Guard
While getting hit with rain, dust, dirt or sand on the trail your frame has probably become your newest mud, dent, or scratch trophy. The Fox Mud Guard can help keep the debris off your frame and fork while still allowing you to bomb the trail without hesitation of aftermath, cleaning or damage. Designed to fit multiple fork and wheel sizes, the Fox Mud Guard is an essential accessory for riding in all environments.
Tannus Armour
Getting pricked with goathead thorn ridden terrain is inevitable when tackling trails in Southern and Central Utah. The dreaded hiss of a leaky tire miles out from the trailhead is worse than a baby cry before feeding.
Tannus says Armour is like a helmet for your tires. Keeping things protected from the inner lining to the outer tread. unlike other flat protectors, Tannus Armour foam sits directly under the tread, against the tire, also adding bonus protection to vulnerable side walls that are known to get sliced or pinch flats.
Available in both tube and tubeless options, Armour inserts are the best bet for trails as hard on a tire as the rider is.
Maxxis Minion DHF -Front Tire
The standard in fast descending front tires. Often imitated, never duplicated. Maxxis Minion DHF is a rider standard.
Maxxis Minion DHR II - Rear Tire
With side knobs borrowed from the legendary Minion DHF, The Minion DHR II has become a standard in rear tire use.
Using a tire on your bike that isn't meant for the terrain will significantly impact your overall experience. Maybe your stock OEM tires are effective for the trails you're riding, or maybe they need to be upgraded and replaced for a better experience.
The Minion DHF (often used as a front tire) sets an industry standard by which all other enduro style tires are measured. The DHF incorporates ramped knobs for low rolling resistance and channel-cut knobs to increase gripping edges, giving straight-line control and precise cornering.
DHR II (often used as a rear tire) but widened to provide more support, cornering like no other with the center tread features ramped leading edges to improve acceleration, creates a smooth transition when leaning the bike. The DHR II is the standard for riders wanting maximum traction and cornering grip when trail conditions get loose and unpredictable.
