MaxxisMinion DHR II - Dual Compound - 20, 24, 26, 27.5, 29 - EXO - E25 Rating, Tubeless | Excellent Braking and Cornering Traction in Steep Terrain

My new bike came with a weak rear tire, so I immediately upgraded it to the this, for more traction and compliancy. Tubeless installation was super easy on my wheel, and it matches well with DHF version of the same tire up front. So far no leaks, and its proving to be very durable. I ride on fairly dry, rough, rocky, chunky trails of Rocky Mountains and experienced no noticeable damage in a month of use. The only down side is the pricing and weight. I would not install these on cross country setup, and instead, go with lighter and faster options.

I've used Kenda, Serfas, and Continental. I guess I was resistant to Maxxis because they're everywhere. I converted to tubeless and I've ridden on them twice on rough terrain. They grab great in the uphill, over rocks, etc. Braking is improved with the tread pattern. I feel they're worth the money. I'll see how they wear over time.

This is a great tire to run on either your front or rear. I'm running this tire on my older Trek Fuel and it corners great, sheds muck and just feels stable running tubeless at the right pressure. I got a new Stumpy EVO Pro and it came with Specialized Eliminators and I am already missing the confidence that I had on my Minions. I will be upgrading soon.As others have said, I guess it's a bit of a heavy tire but I am a heavy guy and I'm out there to have fun, not count grams. Depending on usage, they last about as long as any tire.Like I said, I will be upgrading my stumpy real soon.

Trek X-Caliber8 2021 29” 2.3 DHR II F/RBoy Howdy, these tires are amazing!!! I’m running two DHR’s front and back. My bike is an XC bike and I started MTBing the beginning of this summer. I use my bike for everything from long rides, bike parks, trails ect. I live in Denver so there are many options when it comes to biking. The XC tires that I had before were great on pavement and could launch you really fast like a rocket on flat surfaces. Where they felt short however was uphill and on loose terrain. As I’m progressing, my ability to do some things were starting to become hindered. The tires just didn’t have enough grip when I needed it and they would either spin out or it wouldn’t give me confidence on certain obstacles.Then was bestowed upon me the MAXXIS minion DHR II. And a light came down from the sky and said upon me, “Thou shalt have the power to shred”. Hahaha Okay but for real. When you hear people review tires and they say they’re “aggressive” I finally felt what that meant. These tires grab and allow you to go hella fast down single track while keeping consistent stability. They’ll whip you through berms and allow you to move side to side with a feeling, that they just want to stick. Which is great, because that will give you more confidence to use more movement and momentum on the bike. I honestly feel like I go faster on the trails/Singletrack with these rather than my old XC tires because you clearly have more control.However, on pavement they do seem to be a little bumpy because of the deeper knobs but only if you pay attention to it. Another thing is the they’re not as fast on flatter surfaces and understandably.If you’re looking to upgrade your bike buying tires can completely change your ride. So when it comes to the MAXXIS Minion DHR II’s I can only think of one thing to say about them which comes from the great Billy Bob from Varsity Blues, which is, “ I GIVE IT A TEN!!!”

5 stars because if you want to feel like you're on rails going downhill, this is probably the tire for you...It's actually really difficult for me to explain the characteristics of the tire without being straight and to the point. In my experience, it is an excellent downhill tire while being an average more or less in climbing capability.In the downs, you really get a sense of thrill and grip for just about all terrain, and I'm sure the ride gets even more exciting with the 3C compound. One thing I hadn't tested was tire pressure... I would always run these at 18-20psi and never cranked up the air. I really wish I would have bumped up the tire pressure to see how it rides, despite it sitting in my garage. Putting it back on doesn't sound to thrilling for me being that most of my riding is climbing and the casual downhills that come with the trail on my Trek Fuel EX8. Plus, I'm riding a 21.5" XL frame and I'm 6'1, just to give you some stats.I highly recommend this tire for going downhill, but when it comes to climbing it just doesn't have that bite and tread pattern for when you're hammering and wrenching down on staggering, rock and steep paths.Hope this helps you out in your decision! I'll be back with an update if I happen to get that tire back on.

this works great for the trails we ride on a regular basis

The title to this post just says 'Maxxis'. Not which tire or anything else. The main photos to this post shows Maxxis Shorty, but the pictures and descriptions show a Maxxis DHR II.What you end up getting is a Maxxis DHRII which is an awesome tire, and for this price is almost half off.I've mounted a couple of tubeless tires before, and sometimes they are easy, sometimes they are not. For some reason I got the front mounted ok, but the rear fought me so much I ended up just taking it to a shop. But the tires themselves felt quality, and will update once I put a couple rides on them.

I recently picked up a 2016 Trek Superfly 9.7 off of Marketplace and I wasn’t thrilled with the Bontrager tires that the dude had put on it, so I bought the Maxxis DHR IIs and they’re amazing so far. Simple enough to install (I did tubeless) and super grippy on the trail. I’m using these for both the front and rear on this bike and it seems like a solid combo, even though others have said it can be a heavy one (my bike only weighs 23 lbs so I’m not miffed about the extra lbs).

Yup another DHRII, nothing special but does the trick. DH casing and works tubeless

5 rides with the new tread and I am very happy so far.

Perfect

Llego a tiempo y rapido. El precio fue un poco menos de lo que me costaba en las tiendas locales. Buen valor

Buena opcion para las bicis de menores de edad.
