Find the perfect mountain bike tire for your bike at Escapa. With side knobs inspired by the legendary Minion DHF but widened to provide more support, the Maxxis Minion DHR II 27.5 3CT/DH/TR/E-50 tire takes corners like no other.
With side knobs inspired by the legendary Minion DHF but widened to provide more support, the DHR II takes corners like no other. The center tread features ramped leading edges to improve acceleration and sipes to create a smooth transition when leaning the bike. The shovel-shaped lugs in the center tread dig in during hard braking and help keep the bike under control. Pair it with a Minion DHF up front for the ultimate aggressive Trail tire combination.
This special casing construction optimizes the tread pattern and tire shape for today’s wider rims. Traditional tires are designed for narrow rims and have a shape that’s too angular on wide rims, resulting in suboptimal performance. WT tires are optimized for an inner rim width of 35mm, but perform excellently on all rims with an inner dimension between 30 and 39mm.
Tubeless Ready (TR)
Tubeless tires offer many advantages: you can ride with lower air pressure. This provides better traction and reduces rolling resistance. And since there’s no inner tube, the risk of punctures is also reduced. Maxxis TR tires are better suited for use with sealant than other “Tubeless Ready” tires. The Talon of Maxxis TR tires is completely covered with a layer of rubber, just like a true UST Tubeless tire. This means that Tubeless installation is successful on all rims with standard dimensions from the very first inflation and with just a small amount of sealant.
Downhill (DH) Casing
Maxxis downhill tires feature the exact same construction used by the most successful DH racers. A dual 60 TPI casing and butyl inserts in the sidewall above the tire bead form the foundation of the tires that have won the most downhill races in recent years.
3C MaxxTerra
3C MaxxTerra is the optimal three-layer rubber compound for our Enduro and Freeride tires. This compound is characterized by its smoothness on the climb and excellent grip on the descent, as well as its long service life.
