Maxxis Minion DHF Folding Tyre

• The Minion DHF is the standard by which all other aggressive mountain tyres are measured.
• The DHF incorporates ramped knobs for low rolling resistance and channel-cut knobs to increase gripping edges, giving straight-line control and precise cornering.
• 3C compound structures available.
• Designed as a front tyre but suitable for the rear.
• Lightweight for ultimate speed.
• Tubeless ready.
• A go-to performance downhill cycle tyre.

With a tread design that deftly balances rolling speed with braking and cornering traction, it’s no wonder that the Minion DHF is one of the most imitated tyres in mountain biking.

Technology -
Tubeless:
Tubeless tyres provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures, which improves traction; lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tyre; and less chance of flatting because there is no tube.

Puncture Protection:
Casings are supplemented with additional puncture protection layers to suit specific riding disciplines. Material can be added around the bead, in the sidewall, beneath the tread, extended from bead to bead or some combination thereof. The Minion DHF is available with different puncture protection layers:

EXO:
A cut and abrasion-resistant material added to the sidewalls of many of our gravel and MTB tyres. Suitable for use in a wide range of riding applications from gravel to XC to light trail duty.

EXO+:
EXO+ builds on our EXO technology with the addition of a small butyl insert around the bead. EXO+ is ideal for trail riding in moderately demanding terrain.

Compound:
Above all, Maxxis is known for the quality and performance of its rubber compounds. Rubber compounds are tailored to meet the needs of specific riding disciplines or conditions. Maxxis can produce tyres with one, two or three individual rubber compounds depending on the intended application. The Minion DHF is available in a choice of compounds:

Dual Compound:
Two distinct rubber compounds are used within the tread to offer a balance between rolling resistance and grip.

3C MaxxGrip:
3C MaxxGrip uses the softest rubber compounds to offer the ultimate in grip and slow rebound properties for unparalleled traction in downhill applications.

3C MaxxTerra:
An intermediate compound configuration used in select mountain tyres. 3C MaxxTerra is softer and offers more traction than 3C MaxxSpeed, yet provides better treadwear and less rolling resistance than MaxxGrip.

Wide Trail Construction:
Wide Trail (WT) construction optimizes the tyre's tread layout and profile to match today’s modern, wider rims. Maxxis offers WT tyres for everything from XC to gravity applications. A 30mm internal width rim is ideal for most applications, but WT tyres can be used on rims ranging from 19mm to 35mm internal.

Threads Per Inch (TPI):
The number of threads that cross through one square inch of a single ply of the tyre’s casing. Lower TPI gives better puncture, cut and abrasion resistance but is heavier. Higher TPI conforms better to the terrain, offering a smoother, more comfortable ride while reducing the weight of the tyre. Maxxis uses 27, 60, 120 or 170 TPI casings depending on the application.
