Minions do your bidding. The Maxxis Minion DHF 3C 2.5 tire will do your bidding when it comes to loose and muddy downhills. You want to go straight? It'll keep you straight. You want to gently turn? It'll do that. You want to lean hard into an impossibly tight radius turn because victory is on the line? It'll sing the happy song as it corners like your bike is on rails!

As with many tires, this one needs jargon explained. DHF means "downhill front." It’s a downhill tire, first, and it can be used as a front with a Minion DHR or, depending on conditions, as a rear with another DHF in front. 3C is Triple Compound Technology -- three different rubber compounds comprise the tread. The tire has a 70a durometer rubber base layer which reduces knob flex and increases tire life. 40a durometer shoulder knobs grip without rebounding fast. 42a durometer rubber crown knobs help improve braking performance, as part of going fast is controlling speed.

The Maxxis Minion DHF 3C 2.5 tire measures 26 x 2.5”. The wire bead tire is designed to be ridden with tubes. The thread count is 60 tpi. The maximum recommended tire pressure is 65 psi. Black. 1330g.
