Maxxis Minion DHR II in 29 x 2.50 is a rear-focused 29er mountain bike tire built for aggressive trail, enduro, and downhill riding where braking traction and cornering support matter most. Its tread layout is tuned to stay composed under hard deceleration while keeping a predictable transition when the bike is leaned over, making it a dependable choice for riders who push speed into corners and rely on controlled braking on steep terrain.
Rear-specific DHR II tread - paddle-style center knobs bite hard under braking and deliver confident control on loose-over-hard and steep descents
Ramped center knobs with sipes - improves rolling efficiency and acceleration while smoothing the feel as the tire transitions from center tread to side knobs
Widened DHF-inspired side knobs - increases cornering support for a planted, consistent edge when loading the tire in berms or off-camber turns
MaxxTerra triple compound - balances grip with durability and controlled rolling resistance for all-around trail and enduro use
EXO+ casing protection - medium-duty puncture and cut resistance suited to aggressive trail riding and light weight e-bikes without the bulk of full DH casings
29 x 2.50 sizing - higher volume footprint for added traction and stability, especially when braking hard or riding rough, fast trails
Paired with a Maxxis Minion DHF up front, the DHR II is a proven front/rear combination for riders who want confident cornering up front and strong braking grip out back across a wide range of trail conditions.
