Maxxis Assegai TR EXO DUAL COMPOUND 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 EXO Protection with the Dual Compound for all-mountain and enduro use with a focus on a balanced ratio of traction, weight and direct handling.


Technologies:

• EXO PROTECTION
EXO Protection is an extremely cut- and abrasion-resistant protective layer on the sidewall of selected MTB, Gravel and Metro tyres from MAXXIS. The tightly woven material is designed to be both light and flexible, so that the performance of the tyres is affected as little as possible.

• DUAL COMPOUND
With the Dual Compound, MAXXIS uses two different rubber compounds in one tread. The properties and arrangement of the compounds are tailored to the respective area of use of the tyre. Depending on the tyre category, different dual compound constructions are used, which can differ significantly between gravel and downhill tyres, for example.

• 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.
