The Maxxis Minion DHR II in 29 x 2.50 with MaxxTerra compound and a true Downhill (DH) casing is built for riders who prioritize braking control, cornering support, and predictable traction on aggressive trail, enduro, and gravity terrain. Its tread pattern blends DHF-inspired side knobs with a rear-specific center section that accelerates efficiently, transitions smoothly at lean, and bites hard when speeds get high and braking gets heavy.
DHR II Cornering Support - Side knobs derived from the Minion DHF, widened for added support, deliver confident edge grip when pushing hard through berms and off-camber turns
Controlled Braking Traction - Paddle-style center knobs dig in under hard braking to keep the rear tire tracking and reduce skid-induced loss of control
Faster Rolling Under Power - Ramped leading edges on the center tread improve acceleration and help the tire carry speed compared to more square-edged rear patterns
Siped Tread for Smoother Lean Transitions - Sipes help the tread conform to trail texture and create a more consistent feel as the bike is leaned over
DH Casing for All-Gravity Abuse - Two layers of durable 60 TPI casing material plus a large butyl rubber insert from bead into the sidewall for added support in extreme downhill and enduro use
MaxxTerra Triple Compound - Updated compound balances grip with durability, maintaining strong tread wear and controlled rolling resistance for long, demanding rides
Designed primarily as a rear tire, the Minion DHR II pairs naturally with a Minion DHF up front for a proven aggressive trail and downhill setup across a wide range of trail conditions.
