Hey Guys, thanks for this explanation. Can you advise, please? I want to go for Assegai 2.5 DD 3CG in front and think about Dissector 2.4 DD 3CT in the back. Do you think that could make sense?
ОтветитьYou forgot to say that EXO casing is very fragile, and cuts very easily!
ОтветитьI got the aggressor in the rear and a dissector in the front,both double down.
ОтветитьAwesome vid! Heavier tyres give you more stability in the air so sometimes its a good thing. Especially if you're into uplifts and jump lines
ОтветитьI wonder if you guys could do an update about the new EXO+ Sidewall that Maxxis introduced in an running change. I wonder how the compare to the DD, or to the old EXO+.
ОтветитьIm on an XL alloy capra and about to transition from exo to DH. Gonna have to re-learn to manny and wheelie with the weight diff lmao
ОтветитьCan you guys do for Schwalbe the part for puncture protection?
ОтветитьThanks good info and energy
Ответитьnow is that just more protection on the side wall or all around??
ОтветитьThis tires are so good. Santa Claus wants to shred!
ОтветитьI just got a rekon and their isnt anything on the sides what does that mean
ОтветитьWell this was a great thing to watch just after buying my Minion EXO tyres...
ОтветитьDunno why any OEM making Enduro bikes fits anything other than DH or DD casings. I always have to bin EXO or EXO+.
ОтветитьGood, both understand the subject but they must be more synthetic, summarized, it can be explained in half the words or time, talking a lot when it is a subject of many who are not informed creates more confusion, sorry but it is my way of see it, not all RYDERS understand the same way, nor do they have the same experience or possibilities to change or try all the versions in this case the line by categories that it brings, produces MAXXIS. THANK YOU anyway, for your talk when watching the video helped me with my previous analysis. Bike Tips with Alejandro Diaz .
ОтветитьSanta!
ОтветитьEXO are garbage any stick the size of a finger will punch a hole. What a 3 mile tire?
ОтветитьDo Dual Compound tires have a tougher sidewall than 3C - ie is EXO in a Dual Compound tougher than EXO in a 3C, or are the compounds in the sidewalls the same across the line?
ОтветитьWhy is it preferential to use a folding tyre when going tubeless?
ОтветитьOK!! Thank you now I finally "get it" when it comes to Maxxis tires. There's enough to confuse me already when trying to choose the best rear front tires--AS IT IS--but the casing etc confused me even more. Well thanks to you guys I think I have this aspect of it figured out.
Great vid and easy to understand.

Exo+ is a bad life decision, ran exo for 2 years, sliced one sidewall on a sharp rock. Switched to exo+, while the feel was much more connected to the trail, in 3 months I punctured a front assegai 2.5wt maxxgrip, and 2 rear 2.4wt dhr2's maxxterra. Cost benefit ratio as a non sponsored rider, not worth it, also not the hardest charger but can ride blacks confidently.
ОтветитьThanks for the explanation. As I replace tires, I’ll be moving to EXO+ for a little extra protection.
ОтветитьGreat video, entertaining and informative. Thanks for sharing and explaining! 👍
Ответитьdecided what tire I need right off the bat from this video. Thanks
ОтветитьAwesome video. I currently have Dissector in Front and Rekon in the back, both EXO.... My weight is 195 lbs I guess an EXO+ is good in the front but I should get a DD in the back ? I was thinking going Assegai in front and DHR2 in the back. (I wanted to get DHF in Front and Dissector in the back.. but I wanted to lower the pressure of my tire this year and maybe with an EXO, I'll get more flat if I do this... but 20-22 PSI in my Rekon, I felt I had no grip all summer long... I was rolling super fast with that combo but put some rain or mud... I was killing myself loosing too much energy on the climb... and didn't felt confortable going down.... I always felt I was this close to loose control of the bike all the time.
ОтветитьI am 72kilos and i can Get away with assegai exo in the front with 20 psi i mostly ride natural trails!
ОтветитьDamn russ trying to maintain his composture and trying not to laugh is just hilarious. This vids helps me a lot to decide what tire to choose
ОтветитьNot risking it, DH casing up front cause it was the only one available
ОтветитьGreat vid! Are all of these tires available in tan wall?
ОтветитьHa ha santa-claus👏👏🔥. I have Michelin dh 22's for my ebike. I will attempt them if I get an analog bike. I feel safer on fh🤗
ОтветитьSo a heads up to all as I found out this week maxxis has changed their exo+ to a single tough 60tpi casing, exo sidewalls and butyl inserts at the bead. Supposedly it’s more durable, better puncture resistance and better pinch flat resistance than orig exo+. Maxxis just kind of stealthily changed this but it’s in their tech section now.
ОтветитьHelpful ✅👌🏽
ОтветитьGood video! I"d be curius to include cuchcorr end heavy weight bike. Like e-enduro. Into the equation of side wall discution. Do you guys run cushcorr? What type of sidewall you run witch cushcore?
ОтветитьThanks for this! Totally makes sense of the options…
ОтветитьI was running Assegai DD and Aggressor DD on my Bronson with Rimpact protections and my bike was way too heavy for me and the trails I typically ride. Just switched to DHF and DHR2 tan walls with EXO protection and I feel the difference in weight. Why are the DD and DH tires so hard to install? I have broken a bunch of tire levers with those tires!
ОтветитьI had a pair of rekons with exo+ and they could not hang with the rock gardens (Florida trails). After two months of riding the side walls started leaking. How much tougher is their did casing. Before that I ran schwalbe magic Mary and hansdamf for 8 months and ran them hard with out issue.
ОтветитьImagine these two guys sharing a house and contemplating what footwear to put on before leaving the house for a walk during autumn.
Ответитьwrecked 2 dd dhr on smooth trails recently , build quality is not great, sidewalls ripp easily and some have a manufacturing
fault ( wobble ) from new , its a pity because otherwise they are a great allround tyre
This is a big help than you. I’m nearly 250lbs and run 27.5 x 2.8 tyres. Which casing would you recommend? Also can you get the assegai in a plus size? Thanks
ОтветитьIs there really No 27,5 TR DH casing option available ? Cant seem to find any that are tubeless ready and DH casing only double down in 27,5 🤷♂️
ОтветитьI am not concerned with weight, so I went with the DH. I do not ride down hill trails, but wanted the toughest tire as to not worry about flats. Getting ready to mount these new tires tomorrow and will ride them Sat morning. I am coming off of Continental Vetical tires that I love. Feeling the Maxxis tires will be great.
ОтветитьHmm my EXOs 2.5 DHFs do fine at the bike park. I ride an XL banshee 29 titan I am 6 foot 210lbs.
ОтветитьRunning wire bead DH case Minions with DH tubes on Halo SAS rims. Weighs as much as a battleship but are bombproof.
ОтветитьYou should talk about how the lighter weight tires ping off rocks compared to heavier tires
Ответитьthank you, you teached us nothing.
ОтветитьGREAT! Comparison
ОтветитьDon't doubt lighter casings like exo...which pretty much everyone rode 5 years ago. I've torn most casings and come to realize it is sometimes the rock and not the tire!
ОтветитьSurprised y'all did NOT go in more details about the actual weight of the tires. You have the tires right in front of you, be nice if you weighed them for us. From my measurements, a Maxxis 27.5 2.5 EXO tire is about 1030 grams on average and the same DD tire is is about 1230 grams. That is ~200 gram weight penalty per tire, which is HUGE! 400 grams is almost a pound and you do feel that 1 extra pound on a long trail rides.
For every 50 minutes we spend riding uphill, on average we only get 5 minutes of downhilling. So for me the extra weight of DD tire is NOT worth it for a pedaling bike. If we do NOT have a dedicated park bike. I think the better option is just to have a dedicated wheelset with 2-ply DH tires for Park Days.
I have a dedicated DH bike with DH tires, but I also ride my Bronson with EXO casing often at the Ski Lifted Bike Park. I have had only 1 flat with the Bronson-EXO and that is because I was running tire pressure too low (22 lbs in the rear). However, I have also flatted and sliced a DD tire before when running too low psi, side wall got squished down too much and stuck out too far and got cut, so I am NOT sure how much extra protection and extra support DD has to offer. For me, I would go DH Casing for a Park Bike and EXO for a Pedaling Bike.
I have never gotten a flat on my Bronson with EXO at the Ski-Lifted Bike Parks if I run 27 lbs or higher for both tires (I am 160 lbs naked). I am not super fast, but I do ride blacks and double-blacks so my risk for flats are there. For these blacks we have to keep your momentum to make it down safetly so it is NOT like I am crawling either.
I really want to run lower pressure because I just ride better when tire is around 20 psi. When my tires are at 27 psi the bike is less forgiving, so going to try Cushcore XC in my Bronson-EXO to see how they do when I run lower pressure.
I do run low pressure on my DH bike because I have cushcore pro and 2-ply tires on my DH bike and do NOT have any problems here. Cool thing about cushcore pro is you can still make it down the mtn with a flat tire, no stopping needed.
The flat I got with exo nearly killed me, running exo+ is definitely worth it for the small weight penalty
