After gathering years of data and feedback from the Maxxis World Cup Downhill and Enduro World Series athletes, there's an all-new Shorty for 2021.The venerable Shorty mid-spike is redesigned with a new tread pattern and sizing. The Gen 2 Shorty takes lessons learnt between the tape at World Cups and the EWS, to provide greater grip and mud clearance for those times when the trail or track is saturated and spicy. A versatile mid-spike tyre for dust, loam and mudImproved wet traction, cornering performance and mud shedding abilitiesRevised tread pattern: New knob layout based on feedback from World Cup DH and EWS ridersDouble wide knob now split into two individual knobsMore supportive cornering knobsAdditional siping to enhance braking and cornering tractionRaised ridges on casing to promote mud clearingNarrower sizing: New 2.40" width provides more mud clearance and reduced weight is an added benefit (DoubleDown and DH specs 5% lighter)WT (Wide Trail)

Named after the iron-tipped spear used by the Zulu people of South Africa, the Maxxis Assegai is the signature tyre of the greatest downhill rider of all time, Greg Minnaar. With an aggressive tread designed to excel in all conditions, the Assegai is built to go fast everywhere.Tall, closely spaced tread digs through dust and loam and provides excellent control on wet roots & rocksWide Trail casing optimised for 30-35mm wide rimsTubeless ready folding bead makings tubeless setup easy While other tyres perform in relatively narrow range of conditions, the Assegai grips tenaciously just about anywhere. Dry or wet, soft or hard pack, the Assegai is a true grip monster yet still rolls well thanks to it's closely spaced and ramped tread. Tall should tread provides corner ripping grip in all conditions and the Assegai is incredibly under braking too, providing all the traction you'll ever need. If you want maximum grip for your bike in a tough, durable tyre, the Maxxis Assegai is one of the best choices around.

Carogna double sided adhesive tape for tubulars bridges the gap between previously existing tapes and mastic in terms of gluing performance and heat-resistance.Key Features:Extremely easy to use compared to mastic,Very reliable adhesion, in any condition,Once removed, Carogna leaves the rim ready for the next gluing, without additional cleaning,Works for road and cyclocross,Also available in very convenient Shop rolls.Why we created it:We started developing Carogna (pronounced “car-own-ya”) double sided adhesive tubular tape with a clear and ambitious goal: to bridge the gap between previously existing tapes and mastic in terms of gluing performance and heat-resistance, while retaining all the advantages of tapes.In addition to this, we gave specific additional consideration to cyclocross (read the specific how-to guide here!) and mountain-bike tubulars, where specific features are needed from the gluing standpoint.Universal performance:Carogna has been tested and is designed to perform flawlessly on any rim material (aluminum, carbon), with any tubular (seamless, handmade, vulcanized sew-ups…), on and off-road.The tape has two application-specific sides:Semi-structural and removable on the rim-side: adhesion is guaranteed by industrial-grade acrylic glue, native to the base tape; this means that when removing the tubular (breaking its bond with the rim), the acrylic glue will stay on the tape, not on the rim. Acrylic has a good adhesion on both aluminum and carbon without any specific surface preparation.Permanent on the tubular side: there’s a 1 mm-thick layer of a recently-developed permanent glue for underwater applications. This thick glue film will move and spread when the tubular is first inflated, ensuring optimized contact with any tubular base tape geometry. Humidity is obviously not an issue, and this glue adheres well to any kind of base tape material (nylon, cotton, poly-cotton) or external finishing (raw, brushed, or coated by neoprene).Wide temperature range in use:Once adhesion is set, the use at low temperatures (down to -40°C) is not a problem. Thermal resistance of all materials used in the manufacture of Carogna was a high priority: Carogna will provide a perfect bonding at 150°C for extended periods (hours), exceeding the heat-resistance of even the best mastics and widely exceeding the heat-resistance of any other tubular tape.Optimized adhesive surface:Adhesion is very strong and uniform across the whole circumference of the rim for all tubulars and it is also uniform across the tubular base tape. One short-coming of tubular tape to-date has been limited adhesion at the edges of the base tape or in the center of tubulars with a raised center seam. Carogna solves these problems.Temperature range when mounting :The ideal thermal range for application of Carogna is between 21°C and 38°C (70 to 100°F), allowing 8 hours to reach 80% of the adhesive strength . Applying the tape below 10°C is not recommended.We recommend cleaning surfaces (rim and tubular base tape) using iso-propylic alcool or mineral spirits.
