Maxxis MINION DHR II tyre 29x2.4WT BikePark DH TR wire (black)

Increased acceleration, cornering support, improved braking performance. The side knobs are similar to those on the legendary Minion DHF, but their characteristics are improved for use on the rear tyre. The centre tread has many edges and angled knobs to roll quickly yet provide maximum braking performance. Pair the Minion DHR II with a DHF at the front and you get the ideal pair for aggressive riding.

Wide Trail

Wide Trail (WT) construction optimises the tyres tread layout and profile on todays modern, wider rims. Traditional tyres are designed around older, narrower rims and can create an overly square tyre profile, leading to less than optimal performance. WT tyres are optimised for a 35 mm inner rim width but are proven to work over a range from 30-35 mm inner rim widths, depending on the riders preference.

Maxxis Wide Trail XC tyres are optimised for use with rims of 30 mm internal width, but they will perform well on rims as narrow as 25 mm. Maxxis does not recommend rims wider than 30 mm or narrower than 25 mm

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 freeriding 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.

Tubeless Ready

Tubeless ready tyres provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures, which improves traction, lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tyre, and less chance of flatting because there is no tube. Tubeless ready tyres are denoted by the letters "TR" on the sidewall.

Tubeless ready tyres must be mounted to tubeless compatible rims and require the use of a liquid sealant to maintain pressure. Liquid sealants have the added benefit of sealing small punctures. Be sure to check your sealant regularly and refresh as needed as it will dry out over time.

Liquid sealants should only be used in the following types of tyres: tubeless road, tubular, and tubeless ready. The use of liquid sealants in any other Maxxis tyre will void the warranty.
