Maxxis Assegai EXO MTB Tire

 

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 new Maxxis Assegai is built to go fast everywhere.

The Assegai comes in a broad range of casings and compounds mainly tailored towards the gravity side of mountain biking. Choose from the popular intermediate EXO casing, EXO + for that little bit extra protection, or Double Down and Downhill for the really rough stuff. The choice of compound is either the long-lasting Dual Compound, the ‘grippy yet durable’ 3C Maxx Terra or the all out downhill grip 3C Maxx Grip.

  • 3C MaxxGrip rubber compound available
  • Wide Trail casing optimized for 30-35mm rims
  • Dual-ply casing
  • Tubeless compatible
  • ETRTO: 63-622 (29")
  • TPI: 60 or 120

TECHNOLOGIES:

Double Down
The Double Down casing has two 120 TPI layers with a reinforced butyl insert to provide support, and protection for enduro and some downhill riding, without the added weight of a full downhill casing

EXO +
The EXO+ casing has a layer of EXO protection with an additional layer inside of SilkShield which will help protect the entire tire from punctures and tears

EXO
EXO casing is the most popular casing from Maxxis, and features a densely woven fabric which is flexible and lightweight to protect against cuts and punctures. This is recommended for trail riding, all mountain and occasional enduro

Downhill
The Downhill casing from Maxxis is the ultimate in protection for aggressive enduro and downhill riding. It has a butyl insert in the side of the tire for support when the going gets rough

3C Maxx Grip
Three different compounds (3C), harder at the base, softer at the edges and medium in the middle. Maxx Grip uses the softest rubber for more of the tire to prioritise grip and traction. Best used in downhill or steep trail riding where maintaining speed is not an issue

3C Maxx Terra
Three different compounds (3C), harder at the base, softer at the edges and medium in the middle. Maxx Terra is an intermediate blend to roll fast but still gives a good supportive grip. Designed to be used across all mountain biking disciplines from XC to downhill

Dual Compound
Designed for durability and long lasting performance. There are two rubber compounds, a harder one for low rolling resistance and a softer one for increased cornering grip
