Good for mixed rock dirt mud trail riding

Great mountain bike tyres. They clear stuck mud really well and are very durable, they perform really well and have taken some heavy hits and continued on without puncturing. They fit a standard 26 inch rim well and are tubeless ready, given that your rims are compatible. However they can be a bit noisy due and have higher rolling resistance than other X-country style tyres. The logos also can be a bit of an eyesore if you don't like them there but I personally think they look good. They are also a bit pricey but well worth the money in my opinion.

I love the way this tire handles on the dirt. Great traction, acceptable rolling resistance. I prefer the "downhill" version of the tire but couldn't find it on Amazon so I'm going with the DD casing this time around. Also got the "MaxTerra" version vs the "Max Grip" for greater treadlife. I ride this tire on my e-bike and the bike weight and torque coming off the rear wheel are tough on tires.

Copertone uguale alla descrizione

This is such a great tire. Very all purpose. I usually ride on the street to get to trails (2 miles approx) and it rolls great on pavement. More rolling resistance on the trail than the dissector, but its marginal. I popped my dissector Exo on a rock a week ago. Decided to get this minion ii EXO+. I like it so much better for my style of riding. It is a beast on steep climbs! GRIP CITY! Helps you keep a nice line when corning and going fast. If you like steering with your back tire braking, go with the dissector. As for EXO+ durability, dont know yet (but i expect great things, cant tell weight difference). I will update post later after more rides. Also, it was a little tough to get the tire on the wheel without the tool. I would advise getting a bead popper tool. Happy riding!

Es una cubierta muy buena yo la uso para mi e-Bike de nduro y responde de lujo

Demo8とハードテイルバイクに使用普通です

Sono parecchi anni che lo adopero e mi trovo ogni volta molto bene,sopratutto sull'anteriore un po meno sul posteriore dove preferisco il minion dhr. Comunque per me è un ottimo copertone,pio preso a quel prezzo su Amazon !!!

I got these for my dad partly because he really needed new tires, because his old ritchey kevlar ones had been on there since he bought the bike and they were practically bald. Also I really wanted to help him get back into mountain biking by getting him set up with some new tubeless tires. Because in general the most important things to have in good working order on your bike are your contact points, these include grips, tires, saddle and peddles all of which you should feel comfortable with. These tires have Maxxis EXO protection which will be well suited for the most abusive of riders. Also they provide excellent proformace from what my dad told me from wet, muddy to dry and hard-pack conditions. My dad told me that he could really feel the ground better when he was running these tires tubeless opposed to when he was running just tubes with his old tires, which was great to hear. I might come back to this for an update after a few months of riding in wet rides this winer in the pacific-northwest. Also this spring were going to utah so we will se how these tires preform there. Ill post the update down below once im done! Hope this helped!

This is my initial review, as I received them a few days ago, mounted them and rode them one day. I'll update my findings later on once I have a good impression of their ride qualities. I purchased the 29x2.3 inch, dual compound version and mounted them to Stan's Flow EX rims.Amazon delivered very fast (I have prime). When I first got them I unpacked them, unfolded them and left them out overnight on their sides. I think this allows the bead to unkink and makes mounting them easier. After removing my old tires (Schwalbe Hans Damf and Nobby Nic combo) and gently scraping out the dried up sealant (gross) I inspected the rim tape to make sure it wasn't peeled off or damaged. The Maxxis tires have pretty stiff sidewalls and the bead was a little tight. I worked the bead around almost all the way on by hand then with the help of a tire lever gently slid the last several inches over the lip of my rim. Once the tires were on the rim I squirted some soapy water onto the sides of the tire and the rim bed/bead socket with a spray bottle to help the tire slide into place and started pumping. I pumped and pumped, the soapy water bubbled a lot, but keep at it. The first part of the bead snapped into place at around 20 psi, then the rest snapped in around 30. I pumped up to max pressure (60 psi) and looked for soap bubbles which would indicate a leak. Didn't see any. Sweet.I let the tires sit on the rim for a few hours to make sure the were holding air before I checked the tire pressure. They lost a few psi but that's no surprise as I hadn't added sealant yet and had the pressure gauge on and off a few times. Before my ride this morning I added the sealant. I used the method on the Stan's bottle, pulling a small part of this tire off the rim, adding a couple ounces of sealant then re inflating and checking for leaks. I shook the wheels around for a little while to distribute the sealant around and then went for a ride.I don't have calipers, but my tape measure says the tires are true to size. On my rims they have a square-ish profile with pressure in the high 20s, with the burly looking center tread at a similar height to the shoulder knobs. They have less volume then my old Schwalbes (which are HUGE and very round) but the stiff sidewalls give the tire a lot of support. It feels more like a true double wall tire than a single wall XC tire. They have great traction when pedaling, only spinning when standing in very loose soil. Charging through rock gardens and cornering hard through berms felt very comfortable and the tall knobs paddle through loose soil and gravel with little slippage. The back tire stays very controlled as well under hard braking which was one of the weaknesses of my old Nobby Nic. It's been bone dry this season in the Northwest so I won't be able to comment on their performance in the wet for a while but so far I'm impressed. Based just on my initial impressions when mounting the tires I would recommend them because they were by far the easiest tire I have mounted and that includes when I was still using tubes.

These are great tires. They grip really well on dirt and gravel as well dry and wet pavement. They also have pretty low rolling resistance on pavement. I have these on front and back, setup tubeless. They work quite well as tubeless tires. I was using the tires that came with the bike and the difference is huge. Probably the single best upgrade I have done for my Talon.One thing you want to do before doing a tubeless setup with these is to unfold them and let them sit laying on there sides before mounting them. Let the crease relax so the bead doesn't want to pull away from the rim. I did this with the second tire and it popped much easier than just pulling them out of the package and trying to mount them.update:I've had these mounted for a few weeks now. The tubeless setup holds air better than the tubes that were in place before. The back tire is a ghetto conversion and the front is a standard conversion. The ghetto conversion cost about a third of the official conversion. Tubeless for mountain bikes is the way to go.update:I've been on some technical single track with these now. The side knobs really improve grip in high speed turns in sand over hard pack.update:Managed to rip the casing on some really rough trails. LBS said they had never seen this before on this tire so lucky me. Was immediately replaced by the manufacturer. So symptoms were, really wobbly tread and tire burping while going up steep inclines. Basically the tire couldn't hold its shape.
