The Minion DHR II offers unparalleled control with its widened side knobs and ramped centre tread. Experience superior cornering, braking, and acceleration.Key Features and Benefits:Widened side knobs: Borrowed from the Minion DHF but expanded for added support, giving you better grip and stability in sharp corners, resulting in more controlled and confident turns.Ramped centre tread: Features ramped leading edges that improve acceleration, allowing for faster speed build-up. The sipes create a smoother transition when leaning the bike, providing consistent control.Paddle-like centre knobs: These knobs dig in during hard braking, helping maintain control even on the steepest descents. The outcome is improved braking power, ensuring safer and more reliable stopping.Tubeless-ready (TR): The tubeless-ready design reduces the risk of punctures and allows for lower tire pressures, resulting in better traction and a more comfortable ride.Versatile compounds and casings: Choose from single or dual compounds, or go for the 3C MaxxTerra or MaxxGrip for wet or mixed conditions. Pair this versatility with options like EXO+ or Downhill casings for extra durability in harsh environments.Maxxis Technologies (Compounds & Casings):3C MaxxTerra - Maxxis 3C MaxxTerra is an intermediate triple compound configuration used across our mountain tyre line. The 3C MaxxTerra compound offers more traction than 3C MaxxSpeed, yet provides better treadwear and less rolling resistance than MaxxGrip, which makes it ideal for trail riding in all conditions.3C MaxxGrip - Maxxis 3C MaxxGrip compound uses the stickiest, slowest rebounding rubber we offer in a mountain bike tyre. This high traction compound is the same one used by our top World Cup Downhill and Enduro World Series athletes and is now available in a variety of casing configurations to cover all riders.3C MaxxGrip + EXO casing = Light duty trail riding in wet/slick conditions3C MaxxGrip + EXO+ casing = All-around trail riding in wet/slick conditions3C MaxxGrip + DoubleDown casing = Enduro racing and e-bikes3C MaxxGrip + Downhill casing = Downhill racing and long travel e-bikesSuper Tacky (ST) - Super Tacky (ST) is a special low-rebound, high-traction compound used in select mountain tyres.EXO - EXO is a cut and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of many Maxxis mountain bike and gravel tyres. This densely woven fabric is lightweight and highly flexible, ensuring that the performance of the tyre remains unaffected. Choose EXO Protection for enhanced durability for gravel, XC, and light-duty trail riding.EXO+ - EXO+ is Maxxis medium-duty puncture protection option suitable for all-around trail riding and lightweight e-bikes. We begin with a durable 60 TPI casing, add in our legendary EXO puncture protection layer in the sidewalls, and top it off with a small butyl insert around the bead. The tough casing and EXO material ward off damage from rocks and roots, while the butyl insert protects the tyre from pinch flats and helps prevent rim damage.Double Down (DD) - DoubleDown (DD) is our casing solution for enduro racing and e-bike use. Two layers of our lightweight 120 TPI casing material are combined with a butyl sidewall insert to create a highly durable tyre with more trail feedback than a Downhill casing tyre. DoubleDown tyres are marginally lighter than their Downhill counterparts, but it s really the difference in trail feel that sets the two apart. Some riders may prefer the highly damped ride provided by a Downhill casing tyre.Downhill (DH) - As the name implies, Maxxis Downhill casing tyres are designed for extreme use in all gravity applications from downhill racing to bike park riding to free riding to long travel e-bikes. A Maxxis Downhill tyre is made with two layers of our durable 60 TPI casing material along with a large butyl rubber insert that extends from each bead into the sidewall. The butyl insert helps prevent pinch flats, protects the rim from impacts, and provides additional sidewall stability.Wide Trail (WT) - Wide Trail (WT) construction optimises the tyre s tread layout and profile on today s modern, wider rims. Historically, tyres were designed around older, narrower rims which can create an overly square tyre profile, leading to suboptimal performance. Our Wide Trail (2.40-2.50 width) tyres are optimised for a 35mm inner rim width but are proven to work over a range from 30-35mm inner rim widths, depending on the rider s preference.The Maxxis Minion DHR II is for riders who demand the best in control, speed, and braking. With its precise tread design and durable build, it's the go-to choice for all trail conditions. Whether you ride enduro, trail, or downhill, this tire will handle it all with confidence.Maximise your ride with the unmatched performance of the Minion DHR II. Experience the perfect combination of speed, stability, and durability.
