Greg Minnaar's signature tire, the Maxxis Assegai, offers tenacious and predictable grip across the entire profile, regardless of lean angle. The Assegai can be used both front and rear for a confident pedaling feel or as a front tire paired with a faster rolling rear tire.

Technology:

3C MAXXGRIP

Maxxis's 3C MaxxGrip compound uses the stickiest, slowest rebound rubber we offer in a mountain bike tire. This high-traction compound is the same used by our top athletes in the Downhill World Cup and Enduro World Series and is now available in a variety of casing configurations to suit all riders.

  • 3C MaxxGrip + EXO casing = Light trail riding in wet/slick conditions
  • 3C MaxxGrip casing + EXO+ = All-around trail riding in wet/slippery conditions
  • 3C MaxxGrip casing + DoubleDown = Enduro racing and e-bike
  • 3C MaxxGrip + Downhill casing = Downhill racing and long travel e-bike

DOUBLE DOWN (DD)

DoubleDown (DD) is our casing solution for enduro racing and e-bike use. Two layers of our lightweight 120 TPI casing material are combined with a butyl sidewall insert to create a highly durable tire with more trail feedback than a downhill casing tire. DoubleDown tires are slightly lighter than their Downhill counterparts, but it is the difference in "trail feel" that sets them apart. Some riders may prefer the highly damped ride provided by a downhill casing tire.

TUBELESS READY

Tubeless ready tires offer the rider numerous advantages: the ability to use lower air pressures, which improves traction; lower rolling resistance compared to a tire with an inner tube; and less chance of flats because there is no tube. Tubeless ready tires are marked with the letters "TR" on the sidewall.

Tubeless ready tires must be mounted on tubeless-compatible rims and require the use of a liquid sealant to maintain pressure. Liquid sealants have the added benefit of sealing small punctures. Be sure to regularly check the sealant and refresh it as needed since it will dry out over time.


Liquid sealants must only be used in the following types of tires: road tubeless, tubular, and tubeless ready. Using liquid sealants in any other Maxxis tire will void the warranty.
