snowman_941541067Great Tahoe Tire
Agree with other reviews re: tire doing well in dry conditions but tried it this weekend in sloppy, muddy conditions. Tire shed the mud easily and never lost traction. Great all around rear tire. Thanks to Eric Watford for setting me up.
Chad CordellEmployeeAwesome Rear Tire
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have this tire paired up with a Minion DHF in the front and it is an awesome combo. This tire really shines in loose, dry conditions and loose over hardpack.
Rob WykoffEmployeeGreat Tires for my Bronson
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I've been riding the new Maxxis Agressor as a rear tire on my Bronson for about a month now and couldn't be happier. I have all the traction I need, and minimal rolling resistance compared to the DHRs I had on there prior. For trail riding in Utah where we get a mix of conditions from loose over hardback to sandy and soft, I have been really impressed with the Maxxis Agressor.

I've been running the minion SS on past bikes and decided to give the aggressor a go...And I love it! tracks well, solid grip, and great durability. This is now my go to rear tire.

Great rear tire
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Set this up tubeless no problem. Handles dry and dusty summer conditions with ease.
GeoffConfidence in NorthWest Corner of CT
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Put this 27.5 on my son's 2017 Trek X-Cal 9 15.5 frame.
Stock xc tire were worthless in the North-West corner of CT during the spring.
Once, he saw the more aggressive tread pattern of the Aggressor you could see his confidence grow!
He likes the better braking and climbing the tire has on the wet white-pine needles as well as overall traction through the mud.
I'll follow up with a post on the 29" because I upgraded the whole family to Aggressors.....Happily !

Ride Fast, Have Traction
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I rode a Evil Calling with this as the front and rear tire. I was a bit hesitant to have it (especially as a front tire) and am absolutely stoked on it now that I've tried it. I spent three days riding in Moab on it and rode Captain Ahab, part of the Whole Enchilada (Half Eaten Enchilada?) and Mag 7 and it excelled the entire time.
It rolls relatively fast and has decent enough of tread to provide traction and bite when the going gets rowdy. I agree with many of the reviews below that it would be a great rear tire, especially if paired with something like a Minion DHF up front. I'd love to have a side by side comparison with something like the Minion SS to see how they hold up next to each other.
Long term durability isn't something I can speak for here, but no knobs torn off or anything after ~70 miles of slickrock and desert riding. If its anything like other Maxxis tires, we should be set.
For trail/all mountain riding, this would make for a great rear tire to pair with a more aggressive front tire. If you have any other questions on it or what you should run as a front tire, feel free to give a shout to my direct line 801.204.4547 or email me at cojohnson@backcountry.com!

The Aggressor is quickly becoming the go-to rear tire for Competitive Cyclist employees. The combination of braking / cornering traction and smooth rolling hits the sweet spot for most conditions. Take all of that and pair with Maxxis durability and you have a winner.
Dan BeGearheadRolls Fast, Grips For Days
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
If you're in the market for an excellent rear tire that offers tons of traction this is a great candidate. The close block design allows the tire to roll well while still finding plenty of traction in dry loose conditions. The cornering lugs hook up very well and provide excellent cornering grip. Add 3C rubber into the mix and this tire turns into one of the best rear tires I've ridden.
Really the only drawback to this tire is it doesn't clear mud well. But it also isn't designed to be a mud tire and Maxxis has the Shorty for that.

Pretty Dang Good
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This is the rear tire on my SB6. Last bike had the Tomahawk on the back. This definitely rolls faster, but looses a but of grip. Overall, very happy with it

Excited to toss this tire on my bike and get outside on the dirt. I had been using the Minion SS and loved it at first but just kept having issues with them getting punctures. So I am going to try this one out and see how it goes. But I am a Maxxis fan for sure. Pairing it with a High Roller
