Maxxis Assegai Tyre - Black

The Maxxis Assegai — World Cup champion Greg Minnaar's signature tyre. While this tyre may not make you ride quite like Greg Minnaar, it's going to absolutely rip up those downhill runs with more grip than you ever thought possible. Some of the best aspects of various tyres such as the DHF, DHR II, and even the original High Roller have been combined to make this monster of a tyre that excels in all areas — other than fast rolling. If you are looking for that, then this likely isn't the tyre for you. This is the kind of tyre that is going to do its best to find grip anywhere. Now featuring the all-new MaxxTerra rubber formulation, the Assegai gains a 30% increase in durability and longevity and a 15% increase in traction, with no loss in rolling efficiency — delivering even more confidence on the steepest and roughest terrain.
