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 tyre 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 tyres excel only in certain conditions, the new Maxxis Assegai is built to go fast everywhere.Dual-ply downhill casingTubeless compatibleWide Trail casing optimized for 30-35mm rimsThe Assegai can be used front and rear for a surefooted feel or as a front paired with a faster rolling rear tyre.Recommended installation: FrontSpecificationCompound: 3C MaxxGripBreaker: EXO+ Puncture ProtectionTubeless TyreBead Type: FoldingTPI:120Weight: 1232g29x2.5
