Maxxis Minion DHR II WT MTB Tyre (3C - TR - DD)The fast-rolling and high grip Minion DHR II WT mountain bike (MTB) tyre features some of Maxxis’ finest technological breakthroughs to give you a fierce advantage on downhill trails. The aggressive front-specific tread features wide side knobs to give it a powerful cornering power on the descent, further enhanced by the tread’s expanded width. The Maxx Terra compound used throughout gives remarkable traction and a lower rolling resistance, ensuring speed and grip are kept consistent even in tough weather conditions. Plus, the DoubleDown casing ensures enduro-levels of puncture resistance without weighing down your bike.Features: Tyre Type: Clincher Bead Type: Folding Compound: 3C MAXX TERRA Casing: 2/120 TPI Maximum Pressure: 50 PSI Tubeless Compatible: Yes Directional, ramped knob design - front Tough double-ply casing Designed as a front-specific tyre but can also be used as a rear Sold individually Weight: 1.2kgTechnologies Tubeless Ready: Tubeless tyres 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 tyre; and less chance of flatting since there is no tube. Maxxis Tubeless Ready (TR) tyres provide the benefits of a UST tubeless tyre without the weight penalty. Maxxis TR tyres use a standard casing and require the use of a liquid sealant to make them airtight. Maxxis Tubeless Ready tyres are the only Maxxis tyres approved for use with liquid sealants Wide Trail (WT): This construction optimises the tyre tread layout and profile on today’s modern wide rims. Traditional tyres are designed around older, narrower rims and create an overly square tyre profile, leading to less than optimal performance. WT tyres obtain peak performance when used with an inner rim width of 35mm but are proven to perform exceptionally with rim widths from 30 - 35mm Double Down: DoubleDown (DD) is the next step in the evolution of the dual-ply tyre casing for enduro racing. Two 120 TPI casing layers reinforced with a butyl insert provide the enduro racer with the support and protection of a downhill tyre, but in a lighter package 3C Triple Compound: Maxxis 3C Triple Compound mountain technology uses a harder, longer-lasting base layer and two progressively softer top layers to optimise traction and stability MAXX TERRA: 3C Maxx Terra is softer and offers more traction than 3C Maxx Speed, yet provides better treadwear and less rolling resistance than Maxx Grip.
