Maxxis Assegai 29x2.50WT 3C MaxxTerra EXO+ TR Tire

Maxxis Assegai, Greg Minnaar’s signature tire, delivers exceptional grip and control across various lean angles, ensuring a predictable ride in any terrain. Featuring 3C MaxxTerra compound, it strikes a balance between traction and durability, outperforming 3C MaxxSpeed while offering improved treadwear and reduced rolling resistance compared to MaxxGrip. The EXO+ protection combines SilkShield and EXO materials to enhance puncture resistance by 27%, sidewall durability by 51%, and pinch flat resistance by 28%. Designed tubeless ready, it allows for lower air pressures and better traction, with the added benefit of self-sealing small punctures with liquid sealant.

• 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.
