I just put the Continental Kryptotal Front & Rear on this week and I LOVE them. Sort of comparable to an Assegai/DHR setup I think..... Especially the front tyre which is very similar to the Assegai. Running Enduro Soft on both. I would love the lighter weight and more supple feel of the Trail casing, but where I ride I just don't want to deal with any potential tyre damage and these feel plenty burly and reliable. I would probably prefer the Super Soft too, but I ride a ton and want them to last. So far I don't feel like I'm lacking grip! The tubeless setup was also the easiest I've ever done. The tyre are such a tight fit and they just seat like a dream. Would love to hear what you guys think of them because so far I am one happy customer.

love the maxxis lineup but once owned a bike which came with specialized tires so I decided to give them a shot. I gotta say they're not bad what so ever, but they chirp and are a lot more audible when they're at the edge of their limits. Some people might not like that but it allowed me to use my ears to determine how much harder I could push them which was a totally new and fantastic experience. I'd definitely recommend them for newer riders

Magic Mary F&R for me in So Cal (Laguna to Big Bear), I like the Assegai when I first put it on but it lets go with no warning and its sketchy if you push it to the limit. Very excited for the Specialized Cannibal which seems like a combo of both the minions with angled side knobs like the Magic Mary. The Continental Kryptotals felt more predictable and better in the loose than Assegai/DHR2 but not as good as the Magic Mary and they felt more sluggish climbing especially on pavement.

I am addicted to testing tires and doing DH repeats at full send, so far after trying most tires the best weight to grip ratio I think is Kenda Hellkat 29x2.4 ATC up front and Conti Kryptotal 2.4 rear endurance casing for precise feeling grip and good wear. For tires that rail hard in all conditions, clear mud, and still pretty light for long days. If shuttling heavier casings for sure. Still need to test Argotal Enduro casing up front. Assagai feels vague to me so it also depends what ground feel builds confidence. Prefer open channel for a hard hook up, intermediaries have hardly any wear so appear pointless.

While the Assegai can rip corners amazingly well, I can't really utilize all that traction while knifing through trees. The Nobby Nics have a better balance of traction and acceleration. The Dissector sounds interesting ....

I've been running aggressor front and rear lately. I started with it on the rear and tried it on the front on a whim as well and it's working pretty good. Rolls faster than a dissector and only gives up a little grip. Most of our trails are hardpack/loose over hard down and then road climbs back up, so having something with decent road life is useful and the aggressor is the fastest rolling non xc tire i've found. If it gets wet, though, forget about it. You're gonna end up on your face first berm.

I'm 70 and have, for years, timed my climbs to determine the fastest rolling tires. "Feel" isn't as reliable as the stopwatch. I'm in Park City, Utah (what's this "mud" of which you speak?) and the fastest roller for me is the previous gen Nobby Nic F/R in 29". Next is Conti Trail King, Mountain King F/R and up until 3 or 4 years ago, I wouldn't have owned a Continental. My 60 y.o. wife at the time could tear those up in one ride. They solved that problem. But, those combo's were too restrictive on loose downhills so I'm now on the Assegai F/ Dissector R. That combo isn't that slow, really, on the climb, and it makes the downs really fun in the loose conditions we sometimes get. Given my brittle bones, the braking force you can put on the Assegai is a life and limb saver.

I've been running the Dissector(f)/Rekon(r) on my Orbea Rise but just got the Assegai to put on the front. The dissector will go on the rear.. I need more grip for high speed turns. Looking forward to it!

DHR II with the Ripmo but I’m building a top fuel so not sure if it’ll change with the shorter travel. Will try the Dissector and new Forkaster, see what happens

DHF is my fav front tire. Thanks for reviewing some uncommon tire brands, like Delium. I would be interested in what you guys think of American classic tires.

I've run a vigilante and a magic mary before on my trail bike, but now I run a vittoria barzo front and rear, and to be honest I don't notice much difference in grip between them in the conditions I ride in, plus the barzo's have much better rolling resistance, so you can ride for longer before running out of energy, plus they knock half a kg off your bike in the place where you notice it the most.
