Maxxis Minion DHR II Rear 29x2.60" WT TR EXO+ 3C MaxxTerra folding tire
With a completely new tread pattern, Maxxis Minion DHR II is the ideal tyre for aggressive gravity driving. With the side studs of the legendary Minion DHF, which were adopted and widened for the DHR II, the DHR II takes to the curves like no other.
The flat bevelled centre studs improve acceleration, the notches give a smooth transition when turning in. The paddle-shaped studs in the middle dig in during hard braking and stabilize the bike.

Technologies
Tubeless Ready (TR)
Tubeless tires have many advantages: you can drive with less air pressure. This results in better traction and the rolling resistance decreases. And where there is no hose, the risk of a breakdown also falls. MAXXIS TR tires are better prepared for mounting with sealing milk than other "Tubeless Ready" tires. The bead of our TR tires is like a real UST tubeless tire completely covered with a rubber layer. As a result, the hose-free mounting of all rims with standard dimensions is successful on the first inflation and with little fluid.
3C MaxxTerra
The right mix for our 3C Enduro and Freeride tire. Smooth uphill and downhill best adhesion characterize this mixture just like a long life.
Wide Trail Casing
Wide Trail (WT) construction optimizes tread layout and tyre shape on today's wider rims. Traditional tires are designed for narrow rims and are too angular on wide rims for optimal performance.
WT tyres are optimised for an inner rim width of 35 mm, but function perfectly on all rims with an inner dimension between 30 and 40 mm.
EXO Protection+
The previous EXO+ construction was based on a 120 TPI carcass reinforced with SilkShield and EXO puncture protection layers. The new EXO+ construction is built on a 60 TPI carcass coated with a new abrasion-resistant rubber. The sidewalls feature a now rubberised EXO puncture protection layer and a short butyl insert is incorporated over the bead. While the previous EXO+ technology had more puncture protection than EXO, the new EXO+ technology now offers almost twice the puncture protection and 20% more puncture protection, placing it pretty much between EXO and DD - with only 1-5% extra weight depending on the model. This should be a significant added value for many riders. The rolling behaviour of the new construction is very similar to the previous one. Although a 120 TPI rolls better than a 60 TPI in a direct comparison, SilkShield "dampens" this difference.
