Selected User Reviews For MAXXIS Minion DHR II WT Dual Compound EXO Tubeless Folding Tire
I probably could have gotten another 200 meters out of it, but I was slipping when climbing in the rain. br>br>The tire grips the road like a freshman in college and rolls smoothly. What do you think of the DHR paired with a DHF? They're mostly used on my enduro race bike.
These tires are fantastic, and I adore them. I have DHR rear tires on both the front and back of my bike, but DHF on the front. One of the reasons for this was that I was unable to locate another 27. 2 DHF in 5 DHF Only 2 people out of 40 were selected. 30 or 2. I was also like "f" because I already had the DHR on the front of my shirt. "I'll just use two rear tires," I said. I run 30 psi and could probably go lower, but the tires grip like vice grips, are super tacky, and I really like them. $55 as well. nectar of the gods My riding buddies paid $80 for a set of no-name tires with the same diameter and width as mine, and they were burned.
So, I've put 417 miles on the Minion DHF, and the tread looks great, but the sidewalls have two pinholes. I plugged them, but it's toast; I was hoping the sidewalls would hold up better for a true double down DH tire; I'm not a hard rider, but the Rocky Mountains do have rocks. Oh well. I'm not sure what I'll do next, but I'm thinking Schwalbe, Conti, or Michellin. I'm on the lookout for the thickest sidewall I can get my hands on. This isn't it, in my opinion. The rubber compound was pleasant to the touch, and the tread itself was still in good condition.
When it comes to grip, there isn't a better tire on the market; this thing is a game changer. It isn't the fastest rolling on the market, but it will hold on to anything. The 4 width is ideal for a rear tire as well, as it provides ample volume. Set the temperature to 26 degrees Fahrenheit. For a 200lb rider, 27 psi is ideal.
Unfortunately, I believe I received a defective tire; I used tubeless tires and initially believed the tire was not seating properly. However, after several attempts and closer inspection, it was found to be properly seated, though the tread was crooked. I'm guessing there was a problem with the mold or a bad bead. As a result, the tread shifted to the side for several inches, similar to what happens when a tire isn't properly seated. I decided to just run it as is because the tire had already been mounted. What I discovered was that the tire would frequently slip when it shouldn't have, and I had a difficult time finding a pressure that was low enough for traction but not so low that it would bottom out or burp. Note: I never got in touch with the seller, so this isn't a true reflection of them. I should have returned it right away, and I take full responsibility for that. Despite the fact that the DHR was barely worn, I replaced it with a Maxxis high roller after about 20 rides. It has a similar tread, but the traction is better, and even at low pressure, I haven't had any burping issues. This confirms to me that the tire I received was defective, and I'm considering getting another Minion DHR as my next tire because I believe it'll be a good fit, especially with the High Roller I'm running. However, any product can have flaws, and I was unfortunate enough to be assigned one. There were no problems with the DHF I ordered from the same seller at the same time.
I inflated it to 40 psi and rode it around after applying tubeless sealant. After that, I parked the bike in the garage and heard something explode after about an hour. When I got into the garage, there was sealant all over the place, and the tire was too stretched to even fit back on the rim. br>br>Had to put on my old Maxxis and noticed the sidewall thickness was much thicker than this DHR II tire, which surprised me because I thought all Maxxis exo tires were the same thickness. br>br>I'm baffled as to how a tire blew off the rim at 40 psi.
I've been using Maxxis tires for a number of years and have never had any problems with them. This was a one-time occurrence, to be sure. I lifted my bike onto a pickup bed in order to transport it to the trail. Anyway, the bike shifted over about 2 inches as we pulled away, and the sidewall rubbed up against something that wasn't Jagged or anything. With this model in particular! I was hoping that by being present, Maxxis would extend a professional courtesy by assisting me in upgrading all of my clients' bicycles to use their products. I still have the tire, which is in excellent condition and appears to have never been used. br> I'm just saying that things happen, but it's important to cover and review this.
Original: For difficult trails, this is a great rear tire. UPDATE: I've noticed that most DHRs sold on Amazon are closer to $100, but you can get the same exact results for $70. What a rip-off from these other people! That extra $30 could get you a decent pair of handlebars instead! Original: br>br>Original: br>br>Original: br>br>Orig If you plan on riding difficult trails, this is the rear tire for you. The tires are very knobby, so you should get the DHF for a front tire if you want more speed, but you can use this for a front if you want more grip.
