The Maxxis Minion DHF is a legend in mountain biking.
This hard charging trail tyre have been mountain bikers' favourite for over 20 years. While once a popular option for downhill, these days this tyre is better suited for hard charging trail riders and enduro applications.
The Minion DHF's tread design is renowned for its optimal balance of rolling speed, braking, and cornering traction, making it one of the most frequently copied tyres in mountain biking.
Characteristics: Excellent cornering grip, predictable feel, handles a wide range of conditions. Faster rolling than the DHR II or Assegai. Decent braking traction.
Suitable Terrain: Loose over hardpack, loam, rocks, roots. Fantastic for Canberra trails like Majura, varied terrain in Tasmania or much of SE QLD’s mixed condition trails.
Riding Style: While not as popular for DH use as it once was, this is still one of our go-to’s for trail and light enduro riding.
Pushys Recommended Combo’s for Minion DHF:
- DHF Front / DHR II Rear: The classic trail set up for decent rolling speed and predictable handling. There’s not many places where this would be the ‘wrong’ choice.
- DHF Front / Rekon Rear: A good hard charging trail set up. Perfect for 120-140mm bikes and riders who like to push the heart rate on climbs, and ride aggressively on descents.
