The Aggressor is an excellent city tire that's very tough and very grippy with a surprisingly low rolling resistance level (I run around 30 psi for city). The rubber itself is noticably thicker, rougher, and tougher to the touch than my Ardent Race 3c MaxxSpeed in the front (which will be replaced by a Minion DHF). Yes this is a heavier tire, but the grip and low RR makes up for the weight. On the trails, as another reviewer stated, it's a great climber. Also grips extremely well in high speed and rocky corners. Braking is very good also, especially on concrete and asphalt. Installation was easy, which is common for Maxxis tires, and has a good fit on 25mm ID rims. The only thing I would suggest with this tire is staying away from riding on the sides of roads because my first Aggressor suffered an unrepairable puncture from a 3 inch long screw with pretty thick threads. Maybe tire plugs would have helped, but those are a temporary fix anyway. To sum it up basically, I'm not going back to my previous XC tires. Ha ha Review: Great all-around SE trail tire - In order to leave a decent review I'll just put up a recent history of the rubber I've had on this particular bike - Tomahawk(rear) Ardent 2.4(F/R), X-Kings(F/R), DHRII(F) and a few more. Set up on a set of Spank OOZY 295's they popped in with a low volume floor pump and sealed up well. Riding a RM Altitude 150/160mm trail-ish bike. Look for the directional arrow when mounting as the tread looks almost "backwards" with the braking center tread. On the rear this tire rules all. Not as light or fast rolling as the X-king or Ardent nor as cush as the 2.4 versions of those but it's a 2.3 with a bit heavier casing which shows. I dropped the pressure to 20psi and I weigh wo gear 165lbs. It grips for days, standing up, sitting - multiple kinds of rock, through last fall's leftover leaves, wet sand and damp ground as well as loose over hardpack and loose over bare rock. Braking vertical or leaned is superb and the small amount of extra weight is unnoticeable. The one on the rear weighed in just over 800 grams. On the front I felt a big difference compared to the Ardent - not as floaty(2.3vs2.4) or as fast and not as wide; it fell into some rock cracks I didn't happen across in prior rides. It also didn't let lose on anything in corners and railed everything I pointed it at. I started the pressure at 26 lbs and ended up at 21lbs for the first two days and depending on if the casing softens at all I may drop this. In transition there is no vagueness - even bite from side to side. Places where I would slide out intentionally with the Ardents F/R since I knew at that speed they wouldn't hook up I was locked in when I weighed the front of the bike down. I'd say these are reminiscent of the smaller DHRII or DHF but much lighter. Nice tire just a different style to get used to. Reviewed after 3 rides 30+ miles. I'm leaving them on in the SE(VA, WV, NC, PA) this spring and summer and will check back with wear and personality in a couple of months. ## Features - MAXXIS AGGRESSOR: The Maxxis Aggressor is designed for high-speed, hard- packed rocky trails. It works especially well as a rear tire paired with a Minion DHF or Assegai in the front. - DUAL COMPOUND: Two distinct rubber compounds are used within the tread to offer a balance between rolling resistance and grip. - EXO: A cut and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of many of our gravel and MTB tires.

Efficient. Planted. Great climber. Long version: I've been mountain biking for 25 years, gone through countless tires. I'm not a featherweight, nor am I racing or bombing off big downhill stuff...too old for such shenanigans. Just a middle-aged guy having some fun while staying in shape. Typical ride is ~10 miles w/ 1200 ft of ascent, about 1000 miles/year on a mix of hardpack, sand, gravel, rock, and sloppy rock. But enough about me. This replaced a rear Specialized Slaughter which was worn but still had life left in it. The Slaughter was a fine tire, but this Maxxis is a huge upgrade for me. The rubber compound is noticeably softer and the tread pattern is more efficient -- very quiet on pavement. This thing climbs and pedals like a champ. Unbelievable traction on a mix of surfaces. Yet very little squirm for all the traction, a noticeable improvement while cornering and off-camber. What I think is happening: Better tread and softer rubber means I can increase psi while still having better traction. And higher psi means less tire roll while cornering and off-camber, which feels less squirmy and more solidly planted. I'm curious to see how the softer rubber wears over time, it has only been on for a few days. But somewhat faster-than-normal wear is more than worth it for how well this suits my riding. I'm sure there are better rear tires for other applications such as downhill or cross country or racing. But this is a great all-around tire for those who just like to get out there and ride. ## Frequently Bought Together - Maxxis Aggressor - Dual Compound - 29, 27.5, 26 - EXO, DD - E25 Rating, Tubeless | Primarily Intended for Rear Wheel Use - MAXXIS Minion DHF - Dual Compound - 20, 24, 26, 27.5, 29 - EXO - E25 Rating, Tubeless | Gold Standard of Gravity Focused Tread - Stan's NoTubes Tire Sealant --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/41784675-aggressor-dual-compound-exo-dd-e25-rating-tubeless-primarily-intended](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/41784675-aggressor-dual-compound-exo-dd-e25-rating-tubeless-primarily-intended) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
