Tenacious, predictable grip from edge to edge gives you the confidence to push harder into corners and brake later on the rough stuff. Greg Minnaar's signature tyre, the Assegai is built for riders who want maximum control when the trail points down.

  • Tall, ramped centre knobs that grip under braking and acceleration
  • Aggressive side knobs for tenacious cornering at any lean angle
  • Consistent traction across the full tread profile
  • Tubeless-ready in select specifications

Grip where it counts

The Assegai fills the gaps between the centre and side knobs so there is no dead spot as the bike rolls onto its edge. That continuous bite means you always know what the tyre is doing, whether you are charging a loose chute or carving a hardpack berm.

Use and fit

An ideal aggressive trail, enduro and downhill tyre. Run it front and rear for a surefooted, planted feel, or up front paired with a faster-rolling rear when you want to save a little speed.
