The Maxxis Assegai is a high-traction, aggressive tyre designed in collaboration with World Cup champion Greg Minnaar. Optimized for demanding trail and enduro conditions, it delivers exceptional grip, stability, and durability—whether used as a front tyre, rear, or both for ultimate control.

Key Advantages

Unmatched Grip:
Tall shoulder and centre knobs offer consistent traction around corners, over wet roots, and on rough terrain.
Balanced Tread Design:
Combines ramped centre blocks with added intermediate lugs for both rapid acceleration and reliable braking performance.
Robust Construction:
Offers 60â€¯TPI casing options (EXO, EXO+, DoubleDown, or DH), reinforced sidewalls, and tubeless-ready beads for tailored durability and downhill resilience.
Signature Compounds:
Available in 3C MaxxTerra, 3C MaxxGrip, and Dual Compound setups—catering to both speed and traction preferences.

Performance Insights

Cornering Confidence:
Reviewers rate it 10/10 for cornering—offering "bite to brake and power through corners" with minimal slipping.
Stability on Rough Terrain:
Handles rocky, steep sections with composure—the side knobs maintain grip and resist deformation under load.
Rolling Trade-Off:
Designed for grip first; riders note it rolls slower than XC tyres. Ideal for aggressive conditions rather than racing.
