DISSECTOR GEN 2The Maxxis Dissector is back, and it’s better than ever. Already a favorite among trail riders for its rolling speed and versatility, the Dissector returns with a range of significant updates that take cornering precision, braking traction, and overall ride feel to the next level.At the heart of the redesign is a completely reengineered side knob profile. Featuring a larger footprint and reshaped sipes, the new side knobs deliver exceptional stability and predictability—especially when pushing hard into corners on dry, hardpacked terrain. By resisting deflection under load, the upgraded knobs boost both durability and control while giving riders quicker engagement and a more confident, locked-in feel through turns.The center tread stays true to the original’s fast-rolling 2-3-2 layout, but the central “3” has been split into individual knobs for improved terrain conformity and enhanced braking traction. Meanwhile, transition knobs were pushed outward, ensuring a smoother, more consistent lean-to-edge feel that complements aggressive riding styles. Like the side knobs, the center tread also benefits from revised siping that increases grip and extends tread life.These refinements make the new Dissector more versatile than ever. It’s a standout front tire for short- to mid-travel trail bikes in the 130–140mm range, especially when paired with a fast rear option like the Maxxis Forekaster or Rekon. On longer-travel setups (150mm+), the Dissector shines as a fast, grippy rear tire in dry conditions, delivering the speed riders crave without sacrificing control.Whether you're racing, chasing PRs, or just pushing the limits on your local trails, the new Maxxis Dissector is built to go faster and corner harder.The new Dissector is available now in a 29x2.40 size with EXO, EXO+, and DoubleDown casing options and a choice of MaxxTerra or MaxxGrip rubber compounds. Key Features Fast-Rolling Center Tread: Ramped knobs reduce rolling resistance for speed on dry hardpack and loose-over-hard surfaces. Aggressive Side Knobs: Provide reliable cornering support and braking traction. Multiple Casing Options: Available in EXO, EXO+ and DoubleDown (DD) casings to suit trail to gravity disciplines. MaxxTerra or MaxxGrip Compounds: Offer a balance between grip and durability (MaxxTerra) or maximum traction (MaxxGrip). Tubeless Ready (TR): For lower pressure and improved grip without pinch flats. Ideal For Trail, Enduro, and Downhill Riding Dry, Hardpack, Rocky and Rooty Conditions Font Tyre, Paired With Faster Rolling Rear and or Rear Tire Use for Fast Rolling and Grip Riders Looking for Speed Without Sacrificing Control Best Use: Commonly used as a rear tire paired with a more aggressive front (e.g. Maxxis Assegai or Minion DHF), but can also serve as a fast-rolling front tire for less aggressive terrain.

DISSECTOR GEN 2The Maxxis Dissector is back, and it’s better than ever. Already a favorite among trail riders for its rolling speed and versatility, the Dissector returns with a range of significant updates that take cornering precision, braking traction, and overall ride feel to the next level.At the heart of the redesign is a completely reengineered side knob profile. Featuring a larger footprint and reshaped sipes, the new side knobs deliver exceptional stability and predictability—especially when pushing hard into corners on dry, hardpacked terrain. By resisting deflection under load, the upgraded knobs boost both durability and control while giving riders quicker engagement and a more confident, locked-in feel through turns.The center tread stays true to the original’s fast-rolling 2-3-2 layout, but the central “3” has been split into individual knobs for improved terrain conformity and enhanced braking traction. Meanwhile, transition knobs were pushed outward, ensuring a smoother, more consistent lean-to-edge feel that complements aggressive riding styles. Like the side knobs, the center tread also benefits from revised siping that increases grip and extends tread life.These refinements make the new Dissector more versatile than ever. It’s a standout front tire for short- to mid-travel trail bikes in the 130–140mm range, especially when paired with a fast rear option like the Maxxis Forekaster or Rekon. On longer-travel setups (150mm+), the Dissector shines as a fast, grippy rear tire in dry conditions, delivering the speed riders crave without sacrificing control.Whether you're racing, chasing PRs, or just pushing the limits on your local trails, the new Maxxis Dissector is built to go faster and corner harder.The new Dissector is available now in a 29x2.40 size with EXO, EXO+, and DoubleDown casing options and a choice of MaxxTerra or MaxxGrip rubber compounds. Key Features Fast-Rolling Center Tread: Ramped knobs reduce rolling resistance for speed on dry hardpack and loose-over-hard surfaces. Aggressive Side Knobs: Provide reliable cornering support and braking traction. Multiple Casing Options: Available in EXO, EXO+ and DoubleDown (DD) casings to suit trail to gravity disciplines. MaxxTerra or MaxxGrip Compounds: Offer a balance between grip and durability (MaxxTerra) or maximum traction (MaxxGrip). Tubeless Ready (TR): For lower pressure and improved grip without pinch flats.

Our pro athletes needed a mid-spike tire that could handle dry, loose, blown-out corners as well as a bit of mud. The Shorty is that tire. A high-volume casing makes the Shorty a more versatile option than a dedicated mud spike like our Wet Scream. Large, tall and slightly staggered side knobs penetrate loose soil to provide predictable, stable cornering at warp speeds. The Shorty is available in trail, enduro, and downhill specs.

World Cup Champion Greg Minnaar's signature tyre. The Maxxis Assegai tire is named after the iron-tipped spear used by the Zulu people of South Africa. Greg Minnaar, a native of South Africa, thought it was a fitting name for a tire ready to do battle on the mountain. The tall knobs punch through dust and loam to find traction, but also offer support and confidence on wet roots and rocks. While other tires excel only in certain conditions, the new Maxxis Assegai is built to go fast everywhere. Double Down DoubleDown (DD) is the next step in the evolution of the dual-ply tire casing for enduro racing. Two 120 TPI casing layers reinforced with a butyl insert provide the enduro racer with the support and protection of a downhill tire, but in a lighter package. 3C MaxxGrip 3C MaxxGrip uses the softest rubbercompounds to offer the ultimate ingrip and slow rebound properties forunparalleled traction in downhill applications.
