Maxxis Assegai Tire - 27.5 x 2.5, Tubeless, Folding, Black, 3C MaxxGrip, DD, Wide Trail

The Maxxis Assegai tire is named after the iron-tipped spear used by the Zulu people of South Africa. Greg Minnaar, a native of South Africa, thought it was a fitting name for a tire ready to do battle on the mountain. The tall knobs punch through dust and loam to find traction, but also offer support and confidence on wet roots and rocks. While other tires excel only in certain conditions, the Maxxis Assegai is built to go fast everywhere. The Assegai can be used both front and rear for a surefooted feel or as a solid front tire combined with a faster-rolling rear tire.

Note: Wide Trail (WT) casings are used on all 2.5" models and are optimized for 30 - 35mm inner rim widths.

Features:

• Dual: Dual Compound for lower rolling resistance and increased cornering grip
• 3C MaxxTerra: An intermediate compound with great rolling a grip properties
• 3C MaxxGrip: Combines Maxxis’ softest rubber compounds for the best grip and slow rebound properties for unparalleled traction in DH use
• EXO: Extremely cut-resistant and abrasion resistant material layer added to sidewalls (60 TPI)
• EXO+: EXO cut-resistant sidewall protection + SilkShield bead-to-bead protection (120 TPI)
• DH: Dual-ply casing with butyl insert and wire bead adds support in downhill application (60 TPI)
• DD: DoubleDown provides two 120 TPI casing layers reinforced with a butyl insert for downhill protection at a lower weight
• TR: Tubeless Ready for increased traction and lower rolling resistance (on all models)
• WT: Wide Trail casing used on 2.5" and 2.6" models is optimized for 30 - 35mm inner width rims
