Maxxis Minion DHF Front MTB Folding Tire TR WT EXO+ 3C MaxxTerra – 27.5×2.50 Inches

The Minion DHF was designed for the often loose and muddy conditions of aggressive all-mountain terrain. The DHF incorporates ramped knobs for low rolling resistance and channel-cut knobs to increase gripping edges, giving straight-line control and precise cornering.

The is an intermediate compound configuration used in select mountain tires. 3C Maxx Terra is softer and offers more traction than 3C Maxx Speed, yet provides better treadwear and less rolling resistance than Maxx Grip.

Tubeless tires provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures, which improves traction; lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tire; and less chance of flatting since there is no tube. Maxxis Tubeless Ready (TR) tires provide the benefits of a UST tubeless tire without the weight penalty. Maxxis TR tires use a standard casing and require the use of a liquid sealant in order to make them airtight. Maxxis Tubeless Ready tires are the only Maxxis tires approved for use with liquid sealants.

The new construction combines two of the best puncture protection materials: SilkShield and EXO.
The SilkShield layer surrounds the entire tire from bead to bead, the EXO layer is mounted on the sidewalls. Together, the EXO+ has the following advantages:

• 27% better puncture protection on the tread*.
• 51 % more stable sidewall*.
• 28 % more puncture protection*.

* compared to the proven, stable EXO casing

Tires with EXO+ protection are designed for aggressive trail riding and Enduro racing, and especially for the higher torque and weight of E-MTBs. First, there are wide versions of the popular Minion DHF, Minion DHr II and Rekon with EXO+ casings.

Model 27.5×2.5″ comes as WT version:

tires are optimized for an inner rim width of 35 mm, but work perfectly on all rims with an inner rim width of 30-40 mm.

Note: Tubeless Ready tires require tubeless compatible rims/wheels, tubeless valves, tubeless rim tape and sealing fluid for tubeless mounting. Sealant fluid is not required for tubeless UST tires, but is recommended for increased puncture protection. Installation should only be carried out by qualified personnel.
