Maxxis Minion DHR II 27.5" folding tire dual-compound

With its completely new tread design, the Minion DHR II is the ideal tire for aggressive gravity driving. With the side lugs of the legendary DHF, which have been widened a little for even better cornering, it has extreme cornering hold. The central lugs have tapered lugs for better acceleration. Notches on the studs improve the transition when turning into bends. Part of the center lugs are paddle-shaped, they dig in when you brake hard and help keep the bike under control. 2.60WT wide tires generally have a WT construction, but no WT marking on the tire sidewall.

DualCompound
Two different rubber compounds are processed into a tread strip. We plan the arrangement of the compounds according to the desired properties of the tires.

MaxxPro
The MaxxPro Compound is the first tire compound for bicycle tires in which the components were ground extremely finely. This mixture is ideal from all-mountain to downhill: more grip, good damping properties, long service life, low rolling resistance. And no tunnel tears - a success of the exclusive MAXXIS MaxxPro technology.

3C Maxx Terra
The right 3C mixture for enduro and freeride tires. Ease of movement uphill and excellent grip downhill characterize this mixture as well as a long service life.

3C MaxxGrip
The well-known 3C downhill mix that many of the best downhillers have trusted for years is now called 3C MaxxGrip. 3C MaxxGrip offers the ultimate grip and the best cushioning properties for incomparable traction on downhills.

EXO protection
This extremely cut and abrasion resistant material protects the sidewall of various MTB tires. It is very tightly woven, light and very flexible. As a result, the performance of the tires remains convincingly good.

EXO + Protection
The new EXO + construction combines two of the best puncture protection materials: SilkShield and EXO.

The SilkShield layer surrounds the entire tire from bead to bead, the EXO layer is mounted on the sidewalls. Together, the EXO + results in the following advantages:

27% better puncture protection on the tread *

51% more stable side wall *

28% more puncture protection *

* compared to the proven stable EXO carcass

Tires with EXO + Protection are built for aggressive trail riding and enduro racing, and especially designed for the higher torque and weight of E-MTBs. First there are wide versions of the popular Minion DHF, Minion DHr II and Rekon with EXO + casings.

Tubeless Ready (TR)
Tubeless tires have many advantages: You can drive with less air pressure. This gives you better traction and reduces rolling resistance. And where there is no hose, the risk of a breakdown also decreases. MAXXIS TR tires are better prepared for assembly with sealing milk than other "tubeless ready" tires. Like a real UST tubeless tire, the bead of the TR tire is completely covered with a rubber layer. As a result, tubing-free assembly is successful on all rims with standard dimensions when they are inflated for the first time and with little liquid. “Normal” MAXXIS MTB tires can also be fitted with tubeless sealant like tires from other manufacturers, as the carcass fabric is very dense. Only the new MAXXIS TR models are officially approved for tubeless assembly and guaranteed by MAXXIS. The tubeless assembly of other models is at your own risk.

Double down
Doubledown tires are constructed like downhill tires: two carcass layers reinforced with a butyl insert in the sidewall. Thanks to two 120 TPI (instead of 60TPI) carcass layers and aramid bead, they are significantly lighter than the downhill tires, much more stable and robust than the TR + EXO tires and therefore ideal for tough enduro courses.

Wide trail casing
The Wide Trail (WT) construction optimizes the tread layout and tire shape on today's modern wider rims. Traditional tires are developed for narrow rims and are too angular in shape on wide rims and thus not exactly optimal performance. WT tires are optimized for an inner rim width of 35 mm, but work excellently on all rims with an inner dimension between 30 and 39 mm.
