Excellent grip in rocky terrain.
"Excellent tire. Front mounted, pressure 1. 5 bar. I ride in the south of France on gravel, very good grip and so far resistant. A really reassuring tire. A bit expensive though."

Description
Developed and tested in collaboration with Greg Minnaar, the tire MAXXIS Assegai 27,5x2,60" 3C MaxxTerra Exo+ takes its name from a spear used by the Zulu people of South Africa. It's the perfect weapon for fighting mountains.
It features high studs for great traction and support on dry, damp, rooty or rocky terrain. The 3C Maxx Terra rubber combines three different compounds: a hard compound for the base of the studs to ensure rigidity when deforming them and maintain a precise fit; a soft compound for the central studs to optimize deformation when braking, pedaling and negotiating obstacles; and a very soft compound for the sidewall studs to provide maximum grip when cornering.
In this version Tubeless Ready which can be fitted with or without an inner tube, this tire is also equipped with an Exo+ carcass, increasing puncture resistance by 27% and pinch resistance by 28%, while improving sidewall durability by 51%. Highly resistant to punctures. It combines two proven technologies: the Silkshield textile layer placed from bead to bead, which improves tread strength, and EXO protection, which reinforces the tire's sidewalls. Durable and lightweight, it is positioned between the Exo and the Double Down.

Maxxis assegaint tire
"Very good quality good grip when cornering off-road in 2.6 as well as in 2.8 and more maneuverable."
Excellent
"Excellent grip in all conditions but wears out quickly on hard ground".
Top
"The grip is excellent I love this tire except for the price :("
Disappointing solidity
"Not as strong as expected. Pinched sidewall. Impossible to repair plus punctures on tread. All in one go. Yet I think 80kg ... pressure at 1. 8bar plus anti-pinch foam in rim. Reinforcements exo + or rather exo minus . Disappointed On the other hand, it grips".
My favorite tire
"I mounted it on the back of my Rocky Mountain Altitude VAE and I wouldn't change a thing. Exceptional grip, precise terrain feedback and a very solid frame! No pinching in 2 weeks of DH in Tignes inflated to 1. 5bars. I'm going to install the same one up front."
