Maxxis Assegai OE MTB Tyre EXO - TRA fast and high grip mountain bike (MTB) tyre for today’s downhill (DH) riders, the Assegai uses a speed-orientated tread and Maxxis’ 3C MAXX TERRA compound to roll through the trails with support and pace. Large, well-spaced blocks run along the centreline to enhance traction and reduce rolling resistance while the angled shoulder lugs provide expert handling when cornering and braking. EXO+ puncture protection adds another level of durability and strength to this impressive tubeless ready downhill tyre.Features: Tyre Type: Clincher Compound: 3C MAXX TERRA Casing: 120 TPI Use: Downhill (DH) Bead Type: Folding Maximum Inflation Pressure: 50 PSI Technology: 3CT, EXO+ Tubeless-Ready World Cup Champion Greg Minnaar’s signature tyre Wide Trail casing optimized for 30-35mm rims Single or Pair: Single Weight: 1095gTechnologies: EXO+: EXO+ construction combines two of our best puncture protection materials: SilkShield and EXO. The SilkShield layer runs from bead-to-bead with a layer of EXO along the sidewalls. 3C MaxxTerra: This is an intermediate compound used in select mountain bike tyres. This compound mix features more of the softer compounds than the MaxxSpeed, but retains a good structure and low rolling resistance thanks to an intricate balance of soft and hard compounds. Tubeless Ready (TR): Tubeless Ready enables the user to fit the tyres without an inner tube, shaving weight and featuring a butyl insert for support and rim protection. WIDE Trail Casing: The Wide Trail (WT) construction optimises the tread layout and tyre shape on today’s modern wider rims. Traditional tyres are designed for narrow rims and get a too square shape on wide rims, resulting in less than optimal performance. WT tyres are optimised for an inner rim width of 35mm, but work excellently on all rims with an inner dimension between 30-39mm.Buy Maxxis Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
