Maxxis Assegai 27.5x2.50" WT EXO+ TR 3C Maxx Terra tire, kevlar
Maxxis Assegai 27.5x2.50" WT EXO+ TR 3C Maxx Terra tire
A new tire called Assegai. Even Greg Minnaar, three-time world champion, three-time overall world cup winner and legend of this sport, collaborated on the development of the new pattern. "My idea was to design a tire that reflects the iconic designs of the Maxxis brand," says Greg Minnaar. "I started in the middle of the sample with a combination of Minion DHF and Minion DHR II. The reason was that the DHF rolls well and gives confidence on hard ground, corners, wet roots and stones. The DHR II added speed and aggressiveness when braking. Later, I added extra teeth to get a better wheel expression under load and a consistent feel all the way to the side lugs. I can't even forget my favourite tire - the High Roller. Together with the experts at Maxxis, we created redesigned side thread that have very similar characteristics to the original. But with the new support, they are also excellent when turning on flat ground. Finally, I took the tread height from the Shorty. As the threads are well supported, the additional height can bite into the ground in dry and dusty conditions."
