Maxxis Assegai 29-inch tyre, width 2.50, DH, WT, 3C MaxxGrip, TR folding tyre
Tyre Maxxis Assegai DH WT TR 3C MaxxGrip
The tall knobs dig through loose sand and scree to find grip, but also hold securely on wet roots and rocks. The Assegai was developed to be fast in all conditions. 2.60WT wide tyres generally have a WT construction, but no WT marking on the tyre sidewall.
Maxxis WITE TRAIL CASING, WT
The Wide Trail construction optimises the tread pattern and tyre shape for today’s modern, wider rims. Traditional tyres are designed for narrow rims and take on an overly angular shape on wide rims, resulting in less than optimal performance. WT tyres are optimised for an inner rim width of 35 mm, but perform excellently on all rims with an inner width between 30 and 39 mm.
The following MTB tyre widths are available in WT construction:
2.40WT
2.50WT
2.60WT-width tyres generally feature a WT construction, but do not have a WT marking on the tyre sidewall.
3C MAXX GRIP
Superior racing performance thanks to three different rubber compounds in different positions on the tread. The base layer ensures low rolling resistance and stability of the tread blocks. The compound in the centre of the tread provides optimum grip on any surface, whilst the extremely damped compound on the shoulder blocks ensures the best possible cornering grip.
Tubeless Ready, TR
Tubeless tyres offer many advantages: you can ride with lower air pressure. This provides better traction and reduces rolling resistance. And with no inner tube, the risk of punctures is also reduced. MAXXIS TR tyres are better prepared for fitting with sealant than other Tubeless Ready tyres. The bead of TR tyres is completely covered with a rubber layer, just like a genuine UST tubeless tyre. This means that tubeless fitting on all rims of standard dimensions is successful from the very first inflation and with very little sealant.
