![]() However, arguably the most important factors are the tires to connect you back to planet earth. One of our customers breaks down his new Maxxis Minion DHF and DHR II tires - " Understand that of all the ways to control your bike on any given terrain, there are several factors at play. Read the full Worldwide Cyclery Review Worldwide Cyclery Customer Review Maxxis has stepped up and designed a tire for the wider rim trend, a trend that actually makes riding bikes more fun!" For most of us, the wheels we are riding right now have a wider internal width than what we would have been riding 5 years ago. While the differences are subtle, this just seems to be the evolution of the bike tire and is truly designed to be used with rims using a 30-35mm internal width. What do we think about the Minion DHF? - "After riding the Maxxis Minion 27.5" x 2.5" WT tire for some time, we found more cornering performance with the Wide Trail design compared to the traditional 2.5" DHF in the same compound. Known for its aggressive cornering lugs, the DHF will shine in a variety of different trail conditions. The Maxxis Minion DHF is without a doubt one of the most popular mountain bike tires in the world. ![]() It is traditionally used as a front tire but can be found on either the front or rear wheel on anything from a "down country" bike all the way up to a downhill bike. The Maxxis Minion DHF is offered in a huge variety of different rubber compounds, casing constructions, wheel sizes, and tread widths. Plenty of our custom builds are finished off with Maxxis Minion DHF tires! Maxxis Minion DHF Technical Information Padded / Protective Short Liners / Chamois.Drop-bar Hydraulic Brake / Shift Levers.E-bike compatibility: yes, up to 25 km/h.Version: Wide Trail Casing (WT), DoubleDown, Tubeless Ready (TR).3C MaxxGrip provides the ultimate in grip and cushioning for an unmatched descent. ![]() Our well-known 3C downhill combination, which many of the best downhillers have relied on for years, is now called 3C MaxxGrip. Due to the two 120 TPI (instead of 60 TPI) casing layers and the aramid bead, they are significantly lighter than downhill tires, significantly more stable and robust than TR + EXO tires and therefore ideal for tough enduro rides. Tubeless mounting of other models is at your own risk.ĭoubledown tires are built like Maxxis downhill tires: two reinforced casing plies with a butyl insert in the sidewall. Officially released for tubeless mounting and guaranteed by MAXXIS, it's just the new MAXXIS TR models. As a result, the tube assembly is successful on all tires with standard dimensions already at first inflation and with little fluid.Įven "normal" MAXXIS MTB tires can be mounted like other tubeless tires with sealant, since the carcass fabrics are very dense. The bead of our TR tire is like a real UST tube block completely covered with a layer of rubber. MAXXIS TR tires are better prepared for installation with seal milk than other "Tubeless Ready" tires. And where there is no tube, the risk of decay also decreases. This provides better traction and reduces rolling resistance. TR tires have many advantages: you can drive with less air pressure. WT tires are optimized for a 35mm inner rim width, but work perfectly on all rims with an inner dimension between 30 and 40mm. Traditional tires are developed for narrow rims and have boxy wheels that are too angular in shape and therefore not exactly optimal performance. ![]() This special casing design optimizes the profile design and shape of the tires on today's wider rims.
