Maxxis Tyre 29 x 2.50 Assegai 3C/TR/DD Maxx Grip

The Maxxis Assegai tire gets its name from the iron - tipped spear of South Africa's Zulu people. South African native Greg Minnaar thought it was the perfect name for a tire built to conquer the mountains. Its tall knobs cut through dust and loam for great traction, and also offer stability and confidence on wet roots and rocks. Unlike other tires that only perform well in specific conditions, the new Maxxis Assegai is designed to speed up anywhere. It features a 3C MaxxGrip rubber compound, a dual - ply downhill casing, a Wide Trail casing optimized for 30 - 35mm rims, and is tubeless compatible.

Using the Maxxis Assegai tire is straightforward. Just install it on a 30 - 35mm rim and you're good to go. Since it's tubeless compatible, you can choose to run it tubeless for a smoother ride and better performance. When riding, you'll notice how well it grips in various conditions, whether it's dusty trails or wet rocks. As for maintenance, regularly check the tire pressure to ensure optimal performance. Also, inspect the knobs for any signs of excessive wear. If you see that the knobs are getting too worn down, it's time to replace the tire. Avoid riding over sharp objects as much as possible to prevent punctures. With proper use and care, this tire will serve you well on all your mountain adventures.
