Maxxis Minion DHR II in 27.5 x 2.50 is a proven rear MTB tire choice for riders who want confident braking traction, predictable cornering support, and consistent performance across aggressive trail and enduro terrain. Side knobs inspired by the Minion DHF are widened for added support when the bike is leaned over, while the paddle-style center tread is shaped to dig in under hard braking and deliver controlled deceleration when trails get steep and loose.
With a MaxxTerra triple-compound and EXO+ casing, this version balances grip, durability, and puncture protection for all-around trail riding and light weight e-bikes, without the vague feel that can come from overly soft casings or slow-rolling tread patterns.
Rear-specific tread design - Paddle-shaped center knobs bite under braking and stay composed on steep, loose descents
Ramped center tread + siping - Smoother rolling and improved transition as the bike is leaned into turns
DHF-inspired, widened side knobs - Strong cornering support and dependable edge grip when pushing into berms and off-camber sections
EXO+ casing protection - Medium-duty puncture resistance suited to aggressive trail riding and light weight e-bikes
MaxxTerra triple compound - Tuned for grip with durability and controlled rolling resistance for long-term trail use
Intended use - Trail, Enduro, Downhill; optimized for rear wheel installation and pairs well with a Minion DHF front for a balanced handling setup
