    Why We Like The Assegai Wide Trail Tire

    Designed for aggressive trail riding in mixed conditions, the Assegai's tall knobs dig deep to find traction in loose dirt and loam, but don't sacrifice the support needed to navigate rocks and hardpack terrain with confidence. The tread pattern also provides a smooth and predictable cornering transition—a welcome feeling when you're trying to hold a line through tricky off-camber turns.

    • Aggressive mountain bike tire for a wide range of terrain
    • Tall knobs find grip without sacrificing stability
    • Tread pattern offers a smooth, predictable cornering transition
    • Works well in loose, loose over hard, medium, and wet conditions
    • Harder Dual Compound rubber improves durability
    • EXO protection fends off sidewall cuts and tears
    • Wide Trail design is optimized for rims with 30 - 35mm internal width

    The best tires

    • Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
    • Fit: True to size

    Great front tire for turning hard

    • Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
    • Fit: True to size
    • Size Bought: 2.6"

    It is a very heavy tire but great for sharp and rocky rough stuff. It will really bite into a tight and sharp turn beyond belief. Super low PSI isn't as necessary for grip with this tire. 2.6" version on my front.

    Wheelies.... forget it go XC tire for agility, or Rekon for a tweener tire. It's far more enduro and heavy trail use, or when conditions are loose and slippery.

    My new favorite front tire

    • Familiarity: I've used it several times

    A good friend of mine convinced me to trynthese out and I absolutely love them. I have traditionally been a DHF/DHR guy but after trying these out on the front I am now a DHR/Assegai guy. I feel like I now have a lot more confidence in my front tire on the trail. Seriously give them a try.
