Maxxis Assegai Tire - 29 x 2.5, Tubeless, Folding, Black, 3C MaxxGrip, Wide Trail, E-50

Elevate your downhill and aggressive trail riding with the Maxxis Assegai Tire - the ultimate choice for demanding mountain bikers seeking superior traction, durability, and performance on the toughest terrain. Crafted with precision engineering and innovative materials, this 29-inch tubeless-ready tire is designed to give you confidence over roots, rocks, and steep descents.

Materials & Construction

Constructed with a high-performance 3C MaxxGrip compound, the Assegai offers unparalleled grip and slow rebound characteristics, delivering exceptional traction in all trail conditions. The tire features a durable downhill casing composed of two 60 TPI layers and reinforced with a large butyl rubber insert that extends from bead to sidewall, providing enhanced sidewall protection and puncture resistance for aggressive riding styles. The folding bead design ensures a lightweight profile for easy installation and reliable tubeless compatibility.

Performance & Engineering

Engineered for downhill racing and gravity-focused riding, the Assegai's tread profile balances aggressive cornering capabilities with reduced rolling resistance. Its knob height is strategically positioned between the Minion DHR II and Shorty, featuring heavily ramped center knobs for faster rolling on the straights while maintaining predictable grip in technical sections. The side knobs excel in providing confident cornering grip and stability, even on slippery roots and loose rocks.

Components & Technology

Optimized for modern, wider rims, the Wide Trail (WT) construction enhances the tire's footprint and profile on 35mm inner width rims, improving traction, control, and handling. The tubeless-ready clincher design allows for lower pressures, increased traction, and fewer flats, making it ideal for rugged downhill tracks and aggressive trail routes. Suitable for e-MTB applications as well, the Assegai's robust design ensures durability and performance across various mountain biking disciplines.

Style & Use Case

Sporting a sleek black finish with a signature World Cup champion Greg Minnaar endorsement, the Assegai embodies race-winning performance and aggressive style. Perfect for downhill racers, enduro enthusiasts, and gravity riders, this tire excels in mixed and challenging trail environments, combining innovative tread design with proven materials for a superior riding experience.
