Maxxis Minion DHF Tire

While it is primarily engineered as a front-specific tire to maximize steering and cornering precision, some riders do run it on the rear for extra braking traction. However, for most setups, it is best paired with a faster-rolling rear tire like the Maxxis Minion DHR II.

3C MaxxTerra is a triple-compound rubber blend that balances grip and longevity. It is softer than the base compound for better traction in corners, but firmer than the ultra-soft MaxxGrip version, making it a versatile choice for all-around trail and enduro riding.

Yes, this is a tubeless-ready tire. You will need a tubeless-compatible rim, tubeless tape, and sealant to set it up without an inner tube, which allows you to run lower pressures for better grip and puncture resistance.

The 120 TPI (threads per inch) casing is more supple than lower-count options, which helps the tire conform better to trail obstacles and improves overall ride quality. It offers a balance between weight savings and the durability needed for aggressive mountain biking.

The Minion DHF features widely spaced, blocky knobs designed to shed mud and bite into loose dirt. It performs exceptionally well in varied conditions, though it is most at home on loose-over-hardpack and technical terrain.
