The Maxxis Assegai tyre 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 new Maxxis Assegai is built to go fast everywhere. 3C MaxxGrip 3C MaxxGrip uses the softest rubbercompounds to offer the ultimate ingrip and slow rebound properties forunparalleled traction in downhill applications. DH Casing Dual Ply – Also known as Downhill casing, this is 2 × 60TPI layers. It also has a Butyl insert stretching from the bead up the sidewall. This makes a huge difference in pinch flat protection, while also supporting the sidewall of the tyre.
