Maxxis Minion DHF Mountain Bike Tyre Tubeless Ready with DoubleDown Casing

The Maxxis Minion DHF tyre has set the benchmark for aggressive mountain bike tyres, offering unmatched performance on a variety of terrains. Designed with ramped knobs that reduce rolling resistance and channel-cut knobs that enhance gripping edges, this tyre delivers exceptional straight-line control and precise cornering. Built for riders who demand reliability and agility, the Minion DHF excels in loose, medium, and wet conditions, making it a versatile choice for serious mountain bikers.

Equipped with the advanced 3C MaxxGrip compound technology, the tyre uses the softest rubber compounds to maximize grip and provide slow rebound properties, ensuring unparalleled traction during downhill rides. The DoubleDown casing offers robust puncture protection with two layers reinforced by a butyl insert, combining the toughness of a downhill tyre with the lighter weight needed for enduro racing. Additionally, the Wide Trail construction optimizes the tread profile for modern wider rims, enhancing overall tyre performance and rider confidence.

Designed tubeless ready, the Minion DHF allows riders to run lower air pressures for improved traction and reduced rolling resistance, while minimizing the risk of flats. With a maximum PSI of 60, folding bead type, and a 120 TPI casing, this tyre balances durability, flexibility, and strength for demanding trail conditions. Whether you’re tackling challenging descents or technical corners, the Maxxis Minion DHF is engineered to elevate your mountain biking experience.
