The Assegai tire is designed primarily for downhill racing and aggressive trail riding in mixed conditions. Its knob height falls between the Minion DHR II and the Shorty. Like the Minion tires, the center knobs are heavily ramped on the leading edge to reduce rolling resistance. A small knob located between the center tread and side knobs provides a smooth transition while cornering. Its alternating vertical knobs feature deep siping, while three horizontal knobs are paired with large corner knobs for improved traction in turns. The Assegai offers predictable traction even over slippery roots and rocks. The tire combines elements from four of Greg's favorite Maxxis tires: the DHR II, DHF, Shorty, and High Roller.
