MAXXIS Aggressor – 2 Pack Mountain Bike Tire, Tubeless Ready

Product Overview

The MAXXIS Aggressor – 2 Pack Mountain Bike Tire is engineered for riders tackling high-speed, hard-packed, and rocky mountain biking trails. Designed to deliver consistent performance on technical terrain, this dual-pack offering provides reliable traction and durability where it matters most. Ideal for aggressive trail riding, the Aggressor excels as a rear tire when paired with popular front options like the Minion DHF or Assegai. With its thoughtful construction and balanced compound design, it offers a practical solution for riders seeking both speed and control on challenging MTB routes.

This tubeless-ready tire is suitable for a broad range of off-road conditions, from XC (cross-country) to light trail use, making it a versatile choice for everyday mountain bikers. The inclusion of EXO protection ensures added sidewall resilience against cuts and abrasions, while the E25 rating confirms compatibility with e-bikes operating at speeds up to 16.1 MPH. Backed by a 1-year manufacturer’s warranty, the Aggressor reflects Maxxis’ commitment to quality and performance across diverse riding environments.

Key Features

• Tubeless Ready Construction: Allows for easy conversion to a tubeless setup, reducing the risk of pinch flats and enabling lower tire pressures for improved traction and ride comfort on rough terrain.
• Dual Compound Technology: Combines two distinct rubber compounds within the tread to optimize the balance between low rolling resistance and enhanced grip, supporting faster speeds without sacrificing control.
• EXO Sidewall Protection: Reinforced with cut and abrasion-resistant material along the sidewalls, providing extra durability during aggressive cornering and rock strikes common on technical trails.
• E25 E-Bike Compatibility: Certified for use on light-duty electric bicycles with motor assistance limited to 16.1 MPH, ensuring safe and effective integration into e-MTB setups.
• Optimized Trail Performance: Specifically designed for high-speed navigation of hard-packed and rocky mountain bike trails, offering predictable handling and responsive cornering.
• Rear-Tire Specialization: Works especially well in the rear position, particularly when mated with front tires such as the Minion DHF or Assegai, creating a balanced and capable full-tire pairing.

Benefits & Use Cases

The MAXXIS Aggressor tire shines in scenarios where speed meets technical challenge. Its dual-compound design ensures that riders can maintain momentum on long, fast descents without excessive energy loss, while still gaining confidence-inspiring grip through tight corners and loose patches. The tread pattern is optimized for hard-packed and rocky surfaces, providing consistent bite and predictable handling even under high-speed conditions.

Riders who frequently navigate switchbacks, rocky ridges, or fast-flowing singletrack will appreciate the tire’s ability to stay planted through transitions. When used as the rear tire—especially alongside the Minion DHF or Assegai up front—the Aggressor contributes to a cohesive handling package that enhances overall bike stability and responsiveness.

Additionally, the EXO sidewall protection adds peace of mind during aggressive trail rides where branches, roots, or rocks may contact the tire’s side. This makes the Aggressor suitable not only for cross-country excursions but also for more demanding light trail duties where durability is just as important as performance.

The E25 certification ensures that e-bike owners can confidently install these tires on their electric mountain bikes, provided the system adheres to the 16.1 MPH speed limit. This opens up trail access for riders using pedal-assist systems without compromising safety or tire integrity.

Important Notes

This product includes two MAXXIS Aggressor tires and is intended for use on mountain bikes. It is recommended to pair the Aggressor with a front tire such as the Minion DHF or Assegai to maximize performance benefits and handling synergy.

Always verify e-bike compatibility before installation; the E25 rating applies only to systems delivering assistance up to 16.1 MPH. For optimal performance, convert the tires to tubeless setup if desired, using appropriate sealant and rim strips.
