Maxxis Minion Dhr II 3C Maxx Grip Tubeless Ready DH Casing 27.5x2.40WT tire

Specifications:

3C MAXXGRIP

Maxxis' 3C MaxxGrip compound uses the stickiest, slowest rebound rubber we offer in a mountain bike tire. This high-traction compound is the same used by our top Downhill World Cup and Enduro World Series athletes and is now available in a variety of casing configurations to cover all riders.

TUBELESS READY

Tubeless ready tires offer the cyclist numerous advantages: the ability to use lower air pressures, which improves traction; lower rolling resistance than a tube tyre; and less chance of flattening because there is no tube. Tubeless ready tires are marked with the letters "TR" on the sidewall.

Tubeless ready tires must be mounted on 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 the sealant regularly and refresh it as needed as it will dry out over time.

WIDE TRAILS

Wide Trail (WT) construction optimizes the tire's layout and tread profile on today's modern wider rims. Traditional tires are designed around older, narrower rims and can create an excessively square tire profile, leading to suboptimal performance. WT tires are optimized for a 35mm internal rim width, but have been proven to perform over a 30-35mm internal rim width range, depending on rider preference.

DH CASING

The Maxxis DH Casing for Downhill MTB tires features two layers of 60tpi canvas with a rubber coating running from bead to bead, providing additional protection and lateral stiffness for Enduro and Downhill applications, with the addition of a layer of butyl rubber in the heel area, to offer protection to the edge of the rims and adds stability to the sidewalls.
