Minion DHR II Tire - 29 x 2.60, MaxxTerra, EXO

Maxxis Minion DHR II is a benchmark rear MTB tire for aggressive trail, enduro, and downhill riding, built to prioritize braking control and confident cornering in a high-volume 29 x 2.60 size. With side knobs inspired by the Minion DHF and a paddle-style center tread, the DHR II delivers predictable grip when the trail gets steep, loose, or fast—without feeling sluggish on the way back up.

• 29 x 2.60 high-volume casing - Adds footprint and stability for hard charging, improving support and confidence when pushing corners and braking late
• DHR II side knobs (DHF-inspired, widened for support) - Strong cornering bite with better knob support under load for more controlled lean-in traction
• Ramped center tread - Faster rolling feel and improved acceleration compared to square-edged center blocks, ideal for aggressive trail and enduro pacing
• Paddle-style braking knobs - Digs in under hard braking to help keep speed in check on steep descents and loose-over-hard surfaces
• Siped tread blocks - Smoother, more predictable transition as the bike is leaned, improving control through changing camber and mixed trail texture
• EXO sidewall protection - Added cut and abrasion resistance on the sidewalls while staying lightweight and compliant for trail and enduro setups
• MaxxTerra triple compound - Balanced grip and durability with solid tread life and controlled rolling resistance for everyday aggressive riding
• Rear-focused design - Tuned for rear wheel duties; commonly paired with a Minion DHF up front for a matched, aggressive trail tire setup
