Tyre: Maxxis MINION DHR 2

With its completely new tread design, the Minion DHR II is the ideal tyre for aggressive gravity riding. Featuring the side knobs of the legendary DHF, which have been slightly widened for even better cornering grip, it offers extreme cornering grip. The centre knobs feature bevelled lugs for better acceleration. Grooves on the knobs improve transition when entering corners. Some of the centre knobs are paddle-shaped; they dig in during hard braking and help keep the bike under control.

Maxxis EXO Protection

This extremely cut- and abrasion-resistant material protects the sidewalls of various MTB tyres. It is very densely woven, lightweight and highly flexible. As a result, the tyres’ performance remains consistently impressive.

Maxxis Dual Rubber Compound

Two different rubber compounds are processed into a single tread strip. We plan the arrangement of the compounds according to the desired characteristics of the tyres.

Maxxis Tubeless Ready, TR

Tubeless tyres offer many advantages: you can ride with lower air pressure. This provides better traction and reduces rolling resistance. And with no inner tube, the risk of punctures is also reduced. MAXXIS TR tyres are better prepared for fitting with sealant than other Tubeless Ready tyres. The bead of TR tyres is completely covered with a rubber layer, just like a genuine UST tubeless tyre. This ensures that tubeless fitting on all rims of standard dimensions is successful from the very first inflation and with minimal sealant.
