This Enduro version of the Maxxis Assegai 27.5" comes with Exo or Exo+ protection and with Dual o Triple Compound options. It was developped with Greg Minaar to provide great grip in any terrain.
The Maxxis Assegai 27.5" 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.
Technology : - Tubeless ready (You can mount your tire without tubes but with sealant on a tubeless rim) - Exo (side protection) - Exo+ (Combination of Exo protection and SilkShield layer that run from bead to bead) - Double Down (Two 120 TPI casing layers reinforced with a butyl insert provide the enduro racer with the support and protection of a downhill tire, but in a lighter package)
