If you thought the OG Minion DHR gripped hard and cornered on rails, buckle up your seatbelt for the Maxxis Minion DHR II EXO/TR 27. 5 Plus Tire. It's burly shoulder lugs and wide stance sets the bar for plus-sized gravity and free-ride tires, digging in for aggressive turns and biting in for accelerations and confident braking. The center lugs, which were markedly spaced in its predecessor, now sit nearly joined at the center for a fast-rolling, paddle-like effect. Together, these tread features mean improved cornering and better braking, especially in loose, dusty conditions.In addition to that burly tread pattern, Maxxis includes EXO sidewall protection for increased durability and a tubeless-ready bead so you can lose the tube and drop the pressure for a smoother, pinch-flat-free ride.
