Maxxis Assegai WT folding tire - 29x2.50 inches - DualCompound TR EXO

After over two years of development, the Maxxis Assegai is finally here! Greg Minnaar’s signature tire is the essence of his 30 years of racing experience and the expert knowledge of Maxxis from over 50 years of tire production.
Tubeless tires have many advantages: you can ride with less air pressure, which provides better traction and reduces rolling resistance. And where there is no tube, the risk of punctures also decreases. Maxxis TR tires are better prepared for mounting with sealant than other “Tubeless Ready” tires. The bead of the TR tires is completely covered with a rubber layer like a true UST tubeless tire. This makes tubeless mounting on all rims with standard dimensions successful on the first inflation and with little liquid. Even “normal” Maxxis MTB tires can be mounted tubeless with sealant like tires from other manufacturers, as the carcass fabrics are very dense. However, only the new Maxxis TR models are officially approved for tubeless mounting and guaranteed by Maxxis.
