Maxxis Minion DHF Kevlar 26"x2.50" EXO/ST Tire – The main advantage of the DHF (Downhill Front) model is its ability to “bite” into the ground when cornering. The distinctive side knobs are highly stable and provide predictable feedback even in extreme situations. The center section with longitudinal grooves ensures stability when riding straight and excellent braking performance. Although originally developed for downhill riding, its versatility has made it the most popular front tire for enduro and trail bikes as well.
