MAXXIS - Assegai 29 x 2.60 Maxxterra EXO TR - Fold 60TPI E-25

The Maxxis Assegai takes its name from the traditional Zulu spear, an apt symbol for its precision and aggression on the trail. Designed in collaboration with World Cup champion Greg Minnaar, this tire is purpose-built for riders who demand maximum grip and control across all conditions. Featuring tall, reinforced knobs, the Assegai excels in dust, loam, wet roots, and slick rock, providing consistent traction and confident cornering. Unlike other tires that favor specific surfaces, the Assegai is tuned to perform fast and reliably everywhere-from loose berms to hardpack, from bike park laps to technical downhill runs.
