Maxxis Assegai 3C MaxxGrip EXO+ MTB Tire
Maxxis Assegai 3C MaxxGrip EXO+ MTB Tire Item # 846437
Description
Greg Minnaar's signature tire – the Maxxis Assegai – provides tenacious, predictable grip across the entire profile no matter the lean angle. The Assegai can be used front and rear for a surefooted feel or as a front paired with a faster rolling rear tire.
3C MaxxGrip
3C MaxxGrip compound uses the stickiest, slowest rebounding rubber Maxxis offer in a mountain bike tire. This high traction compound is the same one used by their top World Cup Downhill and Enduro World Series athletes and is now available in a variety of casing configurations to cover all riders.
EXO+
EXO+ is Maxxis' medium-duty puncture protection option suitable for all-around trail riding and light weight e-bikes. They begin with a durable 60 TPI casing, add in legendary EXO puncture protection layer in the sidewalls, and top it off with a small butyl insert around the bead. The tough casing and EXO material ward off damage from rocks and roots, while the butyl insert protects the tire from pinch flats and helps prevent rim damage.
