Maxxis Assegai TR DD 3C MaxxGrip MTB Folding Tyre

Named after the traditional hunting spear of the South African Zulu people, the MAXXIS Assegai with its aggressive profile drills into a wide variety of terrain. Many years of experience in MTB racing and decades of expertise in tyre development have gone into the development of the MTB tyre.

The open tread design combines pronounced centre and side knobs to support traction while braking, in berms and on loose, wet and technical trails. Thanks to the balanced tread pattern, the tyre promises predictable handling on hardpack, loose surfaces and in mud.

In this version, the Assegai combines the DoubleDown Casing with the 3C MaxxGrip rubber compound for tough enduro and downhill use with a focus on maximum traction, high stability and control in technical terrain.


Technologies:

• DoubleDown Casing [DD]
DoubleDown is a tyre construction from MAXXIS with two 120-TPI casing plies and an additional butyl insert in the sidewalls. The construction is based on the MAXXIS downhill tyres with 60-TPI casing, but the finer casing plies and aramid bead cores are intended to save weight compared to classic downhill constructions. What’s more, the construction is more robust than EXO+ Protection and is designed for additional stability and increased puncture protection for tough enduro use.

• 3C MaxxGrip
3C MaxxGrip is a triple rubber compound from MAXXIS for downhill racing. The compound is designed for maximum grip and high damping properties in order to offer a high level of traction and control even on demanding tracks.

• TUBELESS READY [TR] 
In the MAXXIS range, Tubeless Ready [TR] refers to tyres with a construction that is designed for tubeless use with a sealant, a compatible tubeless rim or matching rim tape. The system enables lower air pressures and is intended to improve traction and ride quality, while reducing the rolling resistance. In addition, minor damages can be sealed directly by the sealant, which reduces the risk of breakdowns.
