## Description

x

Review: Major traction upgrade — excellent braking and control - We installed this tire on my wife’s mountain bike here in the Colorado Rockies, where we ride frequently on steep, rocky terrain. This was a significant upgrade over the stock tire that came with the bike. The braking traction is excellent, and it feels very predictable on descents. My wife immediately noticed improved control and confidence, especially on loose and technical trails. Setup was straightforward, and the tire has been holding air well tubeless. Overall, this tire made a noticeable improvement to the bike’s performance. Excellent traction and control — highly recommended.
Review: Good tires - When I bought my son a bicycle, the shop owner said the latest craze was smooth tires, and he swore by them, so I said, ok, I'll take it. Few days later, my kid tells me he keeps sliding and falling when he hits grass, well, no kidding. Came to amazin, and got a set of these tires. Easy install, my 10 y/o did it, and he loves them, good traction, and not a hard ride like the smooth ones Fast shipping, and right price, just be careful when ordering, there is a difference in front and rear, and they are directional

## Features

- MAXXIS MINION DHR II: With side knobs borrowed from the legendary Minion DHF, but widened to provide more support, the Minion DHR II offers excellent cornering and braking traction.
- DUAL COMPOUND: Two distinct rubber compounds are used within the tread to offer a balance between rolling resistance and grip.
- EXO: A cut and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of many of our gravel and MTB tires. Suitable for use in a wide range of riding applications from gravel to XC to light trail duty.
- E25: Tires with an E25 rating are suitable for light duty e-bikes with assistance up to a maximum of 16.1 MPH.
- WIDE TRAIL: Optimizes the tire’s tread layout and profile to match today’s modern, wider rims. Maxxis offers WT tires for everything from XC to gravity applications. A 30mm internal width rim is ideal for most applications, but WT tires can be used on rims ranging from 19mm to 35mm internal.
- QUALITY GUARANTEE: 1-Year Manufacturer's Warranty
