Maxxis Minion DHR II 29×2.4 – rear tire for trail and enduro riding

Summary:
The Maxxis Minion DHR II is an iconic rear tire that provides unbeatable grip and control for varied trails and enduro routes. The EXO+ sidewall protection and 3C MaxxTerra rubber compound make the tire durable yet flexible, making it suitable for both e-bikes and traditional enduro bikes. The Wide Trail construction and 60 TPI folding casing, combined with the Tubeless Ready feature, allow for lower tire pressures, better grip, and a more comfortable ride. The DHR II is an excellent choice both as a rear tire and for challenging front tire needs on trail bikes.

Materials and technology:

• Rubber compound: 3C MaxxTerra offers an optimal blend of grip, durability, and rolling efficiency. It performs in all conditions, especially on wet and slippery surfaces.

• Protection: EXO+ combines a SilkShield layer with EXO sidewall protection. SilkShield runs from bead to bead, while EXO increases cut protection for the sidewalls. The combination improves the tire's puncture protection by 27%, sidewall durability by 51%, and pinch flat resistance by 28% without making it rigid.

• Casing: The 60 TPI folding casing makes the tire light and easy to install, yet durable enough for demanding riding.

• TR – Tubeless Ready: Allows for lower tire pressures, better grip, and comfort while reducing the risk of punctures.

• WT – Wide Trail: A profile optimized for wider rims ensures the best contact patch and control.

Conditions and ride feel:
The DHR II 29×2.4 is designed as a rear tire, but it also performs excellently on the front, especially in wet conditions and on varied trails. The wide side knobs support cornering and braking, while the ramped edges and sipes of the center tread offer a smooth and predictable transition when leaning the bike. The tire rolls well while maintaining high control on technical and slippery sections. Pair it with a Minion DHF on the front to create an aggressive and versatile tire combination designed for trail use.

Suitability:

• Recommended as a rear tire, also works as a front tire on trail bikes.

• An excellent pair with Maxxis Minion DHF or Assegai tires.
