Haha, I'm feeling an immediate sensation of guilt here now, but I shall try to improve. Appreciate your feedback!

Great, maybe I'll try that. How long does the effect last? I guess it wears down over time.

Haha, alright. Doesn't sound like that's worth the trouble.

Did you ever try to put the quiet 321 hubs on your I9 hubs, Andrew? I've got som Torch hubs that are working well, but I'm getting tired of not experiencing the quiet of the forest when I'm out riding.

I have a Silverado specced on my Ripmo, and I'm disappointed with the durability of the corner patches. After ~700 km of riding the corners have worn down all the way to reveal the foam padding below. The rest of the saddle looks like new, so I don't really see the point of the corner patches.

I choose the impact pro model for durability. I think the sole is a bit thicker than the freerider.

I just can’t understand why other companies can’t come up to five tens rubber standards? Should be fairly obvious what the majority of buyers want...

I’m really pleased so far with a pair of Impact Pros I picked up a month or so ago. They could have had a bit more protection on the ball of the ankle, but that’s pretty much my only complaint.

Riding Greg Minnaar’s Signature Maxxis Assegai Tire - Oct. 9, 2018, 6:25 a.m.

I've got some rides with it as a front tire i the wet now. For rocky, rooty, loamy trails I'm pleased with it. On one of our trails where the mud is quite sticky the Assegai did not shed the mud very well. There was quite a bit of mud left on the tire even after a 3 km gravel road ride back to the car. My buddy's Magic Mary was sheddig the mud easier. So, good tire as long as your mud is not too sticky.

Can't compare directly to the minions as I haven't had them in the MaxxGrip compound and DH casing. But at least I can say thet the grip of my Assegai (Dh casing Maxxgrip), is vastly better than the High Roller 2 (DD Maxxterra) I have as a rear tire.

Anyone have some experience with the assegais in the wet now? I’m considering running them as my front tire on my ripmo for the upcoming fall and winter. Riding pretty steep natural trails for the most part. Some rock slabs and quite a bit of loam, roots and mud.

Cool! What are the trails like where you do your riding? I'll probably try this at some point with mine as well, but I'm positively surprised by the 66 deg angle after having been on 65 deg bikes lately.
