Description
Fast-Rolling, Ultra-Grippy Trail Traction
The Maxxis Aggressor EXO 29" Tire is designed for high-speed trail riding, but that doesn't make this a one-trick-pony. With an aggressive tread pattern designed for stability, traction, and speed, the Aggressor runs particularly well as a rear, paired with either a Minion DHF or Assegai up front.
The Aggressor uses Maxxis' DUAL rubber compound, designed for low rolling resistance and traction. A cluster of knobs through the center are shaped specifically for optimal grip. Large, blocky side knobs dig into the trail when cornering at speed, providing confidence-inspiring grip for white-knuckle descents.
The Maxxis Aggressor EXO 29" tire features EXO Protection through the sidewalls, adding in a layer of puncture- and abrasion-resistance for charging through unexpected rock gardens or craggy outcroppings. The 60 TPI Tubeless Ready casing allows this tire to shed the inner tube and drop the pressure for added traction and comfort when mounted to compatible tubeless rims with liquid sealant.
Also available in 27.5 x 2.3" version.

- 29" x 2.3" foldable bead MTB tire

- Ideally run as a rear, paired with a Minion DHF or Assegai up front

Favorite Rear Tire!
This has been my go-to rear tire for a few years, now. Basically, has a great feel, rolls well, is reasonably weighted, brakes and corners well, and wears better than most other Maxxis tires I've used.

Excellent rear tire
I was getting sick of sliding around on ruts and rocks and the aggressor tire fit the bill. While it is not the fastest tire, it boost confidence in being able to maintain trail contact.

So far, so good?
No more slipping with this tire. I mean maybe if I'm in 1-1 gearing, going uphill, and I jam on the gas, it slips, but otherwise it's way better than my shtty continentals I used to have.

This is my favorite tire!
This is my favorite tire for all the varying trail conditions that I like to ride. I've leaned into high speed corners and bounced through rock gardens with no worries of loosing traction. I can air it down for extra traction and pump it up for setting land speed records. hahahaha I have confidence in the traction on the corners at downhill parks and on the twists and turns on cross-country trails in four different states.

Nice knobs that hook up
This tire works well on loose dry surfaces. It hooks up and doesn�t lose traction and spin when climbing steep loose stuff. Haven�t ridden in mud this summer so can�t rate on this. I used to race and would not hesitate to race this tire. Just a good all around mob tire.

Great rugged rocky dusty dry desert terrain tire!
I bought 2 of these in the spring, just wore out the 1st one after 1100 miles of rugged rocky dry AZ trails (used as rear tire). Very tough tire, great traction on loose on hardpack, dusty rocky Phoenix AZ trails. I would definitely recommend it.

Outstanding when clearance matters
Exceptional traction in power stroke, braking and side control for this width tire. My 429sl has limited space and this is the perfect rear tire for me.

Improved traction on rear wheel
Slightly wider profile over the stock Trek tire resulted in better stability. This helps with the numerous soft sand areas. The grip is confidence inspiring. The tire compound is softer and not as long lived as I would prefer but that's why it grips so well. I'll be order the same tire again.

My new favorite rear tire
Very grippy and predictable. A rare combo in my area which has a lot of decomposed granite (like riding on ball bearings). On trails w/ good dirt I am able to hold corners well.

Great rear tire
Tire is relatively light, and best of all it's not 3c rubber so it lasts a whole season in the SW riding gnarly rocks all of the time. Tread pattern hooks up well on the rear. Great rear tire!
