Maxxis Assegai 27.5x2.50WT 3C MaxxTerra EXO+ TR Tire

The Maxxis Assegai, Greg Minnaar's signature tire, delivers consistent, reliable grip across the entire profile, ensuring confident handling at any lean angle. Featuring 3C MaxxTerra for an optimal balance of traction and treadwear, this tire is built for performance. The EXO+ construction enhances durability with bead-to-bead SilkShield protection and reinforced sidewalls, reducing the risk of punctures and pinch flats. Tubeless ready, the Assegai allows for lower air pressure and reduced rolling resistance, making it a versatile choice for front or rear setup.

• 3C MAXXTERRA: An intermediate compound configuration used in select mountain tires. 3C MaxxTerra is softer and offers more traction than 3C MaxxSpeed, yet provides better treadwear and less rolling resistance than MaxxGrip.
• EXO+: Maxxis' EXO+ construction combines two of our best puncture protection materials: SilkShield and EXO. The SilkShield layer runs from bead-to-bead with a layer of EXO along the sidewalls. Combined, these two materials create EXO+ which improves tread puncture protection by 27%; sidewall durability by 51%; and resistance to pinch flats by 28%.
• TUBELESS READY: Tubeless ready tires provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures, which improves traction; lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tire; and less chance of flatting because there is no tube. Tubeless ready tires are denoted by the letters “TR” on the sidewall.
  Tubeless ready tires must be mounted to 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 check your sealant regularly and refresh as needed as it will dry out over time.
  Liquid sealants should only be used in the following types of tires: tubeless road, tubular, and tubeless ready. The use of liquid sealants in any other Maxxis tire will void the warranty.
