Description

Given the name Assegai by South African downhill world cup champion Greg Minnaar who wanted to design a tyre that combined the best properties of some of Maxxis' most iconic tread patterns, the DHF, DHR II, Shorty and High Roller. The result is a tyre that can find grip on a wide variety of surfaces while also boasting aggressive braking and fast rolling.

As capable in dust and loam as it is over wet roots and rocks, the Assegai is built to go fast everywhere.

  • Maxxis Assegai DH/Enduro Tyre
  • Signature tyre of downhill legend Greg Minnaar
  • 3C MaxxGrip compound
  • Dual-ply casing
  • Wide trail casing optimised for 30-35mm rims
  • 60 TPI
  • Folding bead
  • Tubeless ready

Dual Compound -

Two compounds used within the tread of select tires to offer lower rolling resistance and increased cornering grip

3C MaxxTerra -

An intermediate compound configuration used in select mountain tires. 3C MaxxTerra is softer and offers more traction than 3C MaxxSpeed, yet provides better treadwear and less rolling resistance than MaxxGrip

3C MaxxGrip -

3C MaxxGrip uses the softest rubber compounds to offer the ultimate in grip and slow rebound properties for unparalleled traction in downhill applications

EXO -

An extremely cut-resistant and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of select mountain tyres. This densely woven fabric is also lightweight and highly flexible, ensuring that the performance of the tyre remains unaffected. Choose EXO Protection for exceptionally rocky, treacherous trails where the chance of sidewall cuts and abrasions is high

DoubleDown DD -

DoubleDown (DD) is the next step in the evolution of the dual-ply tyre casing for enduro racing. Two 120 TPI casing layers reinforced with a butyl insert provide the enduro racer with the support and protection of a downhill tyre, but in a lighter package

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 since 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

Wide Trail -

Wide Trail (WT) construction optimizes the tyre's tread layout and profile on today's modern, wider rims. Traditional tyres are designed around older, narrower rims and can create an overly square tyre profile, leading to less than optimal performance. WT tires are optimized for a 35mm inner rim width but are proven to work over a range from 30-35mm inner rim widths, depending on the rider's preference
