Using your Assegai mountain bike tire is straightforward. First, make sure it's properly installed on your bike wheel. Check the tire pressure regularly and keep it at 50 PSI for the best performance. When riding, this tire is great for downhill racing and aggressive trail riding. But be careful on extremely rough terrains as even though it has good traction, excessive impact can damage the tire. For maintenance, after each ride, clean the tire with water and a mild soap to remove dirt and debris. Store the bike in a cool, dry place to prevent the rubber from deteriorating. Inspect the tire periodically for any signs of wear or damage, like cuts or bald spots. If you notice any issues, it might be time to replace the tire.
