The Maxxis Minion DHR II in 29x2.60 is a rear-focused mountain bike tire built for riders who want confident braking control and predictable cornering on aggressive trail, enduro, and downhill terrain. Its tread layout blends fast engagement with a stable, supportive edge feel, making it a reliable choice when speed and traction both matter.
Rear-specific DHR II tread - Paddle-style center knobs bite hard under braking and deliver controlled deceleration on steep, loose, or technical trails
DHF-inspired side knobs (widened for support) - Strong cornering traction with a more planted feel when loading the tire in berms and off-camber turns
Ramped leading edges + siping - Smoother rolling and improved acceleration, with a more consistent transition as the bike is leaned over
MaxxTerra triple compound - Balanced grip and durability for all-around trail and enduro use, designed to maintain solid tread life without giving up control
EXO+ casing protection - Medium-duty puncture protection suited to aggressive trail riding and light-weight e-bikes, without the bulk of full downhill casings
Versatile conditions - Tuned for a wide range of trail surfaces, from hardpack to loose-over-hard, where dependable braking traction is a priority
For a proven aggressive 29er setup, this Minion DHR II pairs naturally with a Maxxis Minion DHF up front for balanced steering bite and rear-wheel braking authority.
