Engineered for pure XC speed and proven with multiple UCI World Championship and XCO European Championship wins.
Fast rolling thanks to the continuous center, with siped extensions that enhance climbing grip and braking bite.
Aggressive cornering on hard, slippery surfaces thanks to the directional siping on the shoulder knobs running parallel to the trail with variable widths and open trailing edges.
Race Formulation Graphene + Silica enhances grip, while preserving rolling speed and durability. It’s built for cross-country Racers who demand peak performance in every section: climbs, descents, and sprints.
The 60 TPI nylon Race Casing offers a supple yet robust structure that enhances puncture resistance and impact absorption without compromising speed. Consistent deformation across tread and sidewall ensures peak performance in cross-country racing.

World Championship proven tread for mixed terrain conditions
Born from the podium and bred for speed, the Mezcal XC Race is the choice of World and European XC Champions — and for good reason. Engineered for elite-level cross-country racing, the Mezcal delivers class-leading performance across technical terrain, fast descents, and grueling climbs.
A continuous center tread ensures lightning-fast rolling on straightaways, while siped extensions dig in when you need it most — maximizing traction on steep climbs and under hard braking. When cornering gets sketchy, the Mezcal comes alive: directional siping on the shoulder knobs runs parallel to the trail, with variable widths and open trailing edges for aggressive grip on hard, slippery surfaces.
Underneath it all, the advanced Graphene + Silica Race Formulation strikes a perfect harmony between grip, speed, and long-wearing durability — tailored for riders who attack every section of the course.
Combined with our new 60 TPI nylon Race Casing, Mezcal delivers an exceptional performance upgrade over its predecessor; 20% more speed, 8% more grip, 44% better puncture resistance, and 9% improved riding comfort, all with predictable control at Race pace.
