Maxxis Minion DHR Downhill Tire
Maxxis started from scratch to design a tire fit to handle UCI World Cup racing, and in the end the Minion DHR Downhill Mountain Bike Tire was born. Tough-as-nails two-ply construction prevents blowouts when you're ripping rock gardens and railing berms at top speed. Maxxis used ramped tread to provide quick acceleration and stopping, so you can brake into a corner, rail it hard, and get back up to speed quickly.
- Tire Durometers: Higher the number the harder the compound, softer durometers grip better, but wear out faster
- 60a: Better traction, higher rolling resistance
- ST or 42a: (Super Tacky) Highest levels of grip, fastest wearing – For downhill racing, freeride
- 3C: (Triple Compound) hard center compound for low rolling resistance and long life, progressively softer compounds on the edges for higher grip when cornering
- UST – Universal Standard for Tubeless – use in conjunction with UST rims
Bottom Line: If you don't podium now, you sure can't blame your tires.
