Maxxis Tyre Minion DHF 24X2.4 WT/EXO

Maxxis Minion DHF MTB Tyre – Legendary Trail, Enduro & Downhill Performance

The Maxxis Minion DHF is one of the most trusted and widely used mountain bike tyres in the world. Designed to deliver the perfect balance of rolling speed, braking control, and cornering traction, it has become a benchmark tyre for trail riders, enduro racers, and downhill athletes alike.

Its aggressive tread pattern features ramped centre knobs for efficient rolling, combined with large, well-supported side knobs that provide exceptional grip when leaning into corners. This design gives riders predictable handling and confident braking across a wide range of terrain.

Available in multiple compound options—including Single Compound, Dual Compound, 3C MaxxTerra, 3C MaxxGrip, and Super Tacky—the Minion DHF can be tailored for everything from everyday trail riding to elite downhill racing. Various casing options such as EXO, EXO+, DoubleDown, and Downhill provide different levels of puncture protection and durability depending on riding style.

Wide Trail (WT) sizes are optimised for modern rims with approximately 35mm internal width, improving tyre shape and handling. Many versions are also Tubeless Ready (TR) for lower tyre pressures, increased traction, and improved puncture resistance.
