Tires Falken or Maxxis

Maxxis Tires

Very dusty here, prefer DHF over Assegai. Also prefer Dissector on rear, I find that combo rolls well and has heaps of traction in the dry.

Pros: heaps of traction
Cons: more rolling resistance

Assegai is very good but be aware it can be very cloggy with mud and needs speed to clear. From what you say of your riding it might not be a problem for you but wet clay especially on slower tech trails can pretty much just turn them into a slick.

Pros: pays back with grip
Cons: can be very cloggy

I've ran the DHF for years and currently run it, but I've ridden a few bikes with the Assegai and I think it is in every way a better, more predictable tyre than a DHF.

Pros: better, more predictable tyre

I run a DHR II and an Assegai for downhill. I love the hookup of the Assegai for varied conditions. The DHF and Assegai are both great tires but I find the Assegai more aggressive with better traction overall.

Pros: better traction overall

I’ve ridden both for many years. The DHF was designed and made when tires were 2.3 wide. As the front tire has generally moved to a 2.5 width the space between the centre and side knobs opened up quite a bit and there is now a vague area of less traction at certain lean angles before you get onto the side knobs.

Pros: traction at all angles
Cons: DHF is lighter

Assegai is my favorite front tire but it is a little slow rolling. If you don't mind that then there aren't many better front tires.

Pros: many better front tires
Cons: little slow rolling

I have ridden the DHF exclusively since getting my bike. I fell in love with the grip when cornering, literally feels like the bike is on rails. I have never lost the front tire in any conditions.

Pros: grip when cornering

I had Falkens as replacement tires on my 626. They lasted a disappointingly short while. Next tire shop said they’re infamous for being soft and wearing quickly.

Cons: wearing quickly, soft
Vehicle: Mazda 626
