Maxxis Minion Dhf WT 3C Maxxterra TL-Ready DD 29 tyre
The Maxxis Minion Dhf 29x2.50 WT 3C Maxxterra TL-Ready DD tyre is perfect on soft and muddy terrain. The sloping studs minimise rolling resistance while the grooved studs increase grip. The tyre has perfect grip on pedalled straights and exceptional grip on hard cornering. The Double Down casing has been reinforced with a butyl insert for greater strength and high puncture resistance. Depending on the state of the terrain, it can be mounted on the front or rear wheel. It can be mounted in front together with the DHR tyre on the rear wheel for greater versatility.

Technologies
Wide Trail (WT)
Wide Trail (WT) construction optimizes the tire’s tread layout and profile on today’s modern, wider rims. Traditional tires are designed around older, narrower rims and can create an overly square tire profile, leading to less than optimal performance. WT tires are optimized for a 35mm inner rim width but are proven to work over a range from 30-35mm inner rim widths, depending on the rider’s preference.
3C MaxxTerra
Maxxis' 3C MaxxTerra is an intermediate triple compound configuration used throughout Maxxis' mtb tyre line. The 3C MaxxTerra compound offers more traction than the 3C MaxxSpeed, and provides less tread wear and rolling resistance than the MaxxGrip, making it ideal for trail riding in all conditions.
Tubeless ready
Tubeless ready tires 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 tire; and less chance of flatting because there is no tube. Tubeless ready tires are denoted by the letters “TR” on the sidewall.
Tubeless ready tires must be mounted to tubeless compatible rims and require the use of a liquid sealant to maintain pressure. Liquid sealants have the added benefit of sealing small punctures. Be sure to check your sealant regularly and refresh as needed as it will dry out over time.
Double Down (DD)
DoubleDown (DD) is the casing solution for both enduro racing and e-bike use. Two layers of the lightweight 120 TPI carcass are combined with a butyl insert on the sidewall to create a highly durable tyre with more terrain feedback than a Downhill carcass tyre. DoubleDown tyres are marginally lighter than their Downhill counterparts, but it is really the difference in 'trail feel' that sets them apart. Some riders may prefer the highly cushioned ride provided by a tyre with a Downhill carcass.
