The Assegai tire is designed primarily for downhill racing and aggressive trail riding in mixed conditions. The knob height falls between the Minion DHR II and the Shorty. Like the Minion tires, the center knobs are heavily ramped on the leading edge to reduce rolling resistance. A small knob located between the center tread and side knobs provides a smooth transition while cornering. The Assegai offers predictable traction, even over slippery roots and rocks.World Cup Champion Greg Minnaar's signature tire Item Specifications Color Black Defined Color Black ISO Diameter 622 / road / 29" ISO Width (mm) 64 Labeled Size 29 x 2.5 PSI 50 Tire Bead Folding Tire Diameter 29" Tire Intended Use Downhill Tire Intended Use Mountain Tire Type Tubeless Ready Clincher TPI 120 Weight 1306 MPN: TB00097400

Maxxis Assegai 29 x 2.5 WT Tire - 3C MaxxGrip, EXO+, 60 TPI, Tubeless Ready, Folding, Black
—$104
This Maxxis Assegai 29 x 2.5 WT combines 3C MaxxGrip rubber, EXO+ protection and a 60 TPI casing. It is black, folding and tubeless ready, with manufacturer part number TB00308100. The key reason to choose this version is traction, particularly as a front tire on an aggressive trail bike. Read the sidewall details, not just Assegai 3C MaxxGrip is Maxxis' grip-focused compound for finding traction on awkward roots, rocks and loose corners. The closely supported transition between center and shoulder knobs gives the Assegai its predictable feel as you lean the bike. You pay for that grip with more rolling drag and typically faster wear than a firmer compound, so a MaxxGrip Assegai at both ends is a deliberate choice, not the fastest setup for every ride. EXO+ is the trail casing here. It adds protection without the heft of Maxxis' DoubleDown or Downhill casings. Riders who regularly damage rear tires on sharp rocks or ride hard bike-park laps should compare those heavier options. A tire name shared with a downhill race tire does not make every version the same construction. Wide Trail fit and tubeless setup The WT tread profile is intended for rims around 30-35mm internal width. Confirm rim compatibility and clearance for the 29 x 2.5 size before ordering. Maxxis lists this exact current part as 63-622 and 60 TPI. Tubeless setup requires compatible rim tape, valves and sealant; tire pressure should suit the rider and terrain and remain within the lower of the tire and rim limits. Watch our Assegai review Our Assegai review and video explain the tread's grip-focused character. They discuss earlier Assegai versions, including a heavier downhill casing. Use the specifications below for this EXO+ tire, and compare other MTB tires if rolling speed or extra casing support is the bigger priority. 29 x 2.5 Wide Trail profile with 3C MaxxGrip compound EXO+ trail casing, 60 TPI, folding bead Tubeless Ready (TR); especially suited to a grip-focused front-tire setup Item Specifications Size 29 x 2.5 WT ETRTO 63-622 Compound 3C MaxxGrip Protection / casing EXO+ / 60 TPI Rim profile Wide Trail; approximately 30-35mm internal width Bead / setup Folding / tubeless ready Color Black Manufacturer-listed weight 1,219g Maximum pressure 50 psi; also observe rim limit Manufacturer part number TB00308100

The Assegai tire is designed primarily for downhill racing and aggressive trail riding in mixed conditions. The knob height falls between the Minion DHR II and the Shorty. Like the Minion tires, the center knobs are heavily ramped on the leading edge to reduce rolling resistance.

The Maxxis Assegai puts cornering and braking traction high on the priority list. Developed with Greg Minnaar, it's a popular front-tire choice for trail, enduro and downhill riding. If you're happy to trade some rolling speed for grip, it's a tire worth comparing.
MaxxGrip prioritizes traction, while MaxxTerra balances grip with tread life and rolling resistance. The selection also includes Dual-compound versions. Casing choices include EXO, EXO+, DoubleDown and DH, with different levels of support, protection and weight. Choose around your terrain and riding rather than buying the heaviest casing by default.
Check the exact combination in each listing, since not every size comes in every compound and casing. Match wheel diameter, tire width and rim compatibility, and leave enough frame or fork clearance. Confirm the Tubeless Ready designation for your setup.
