Maxxis Minion DH R Tyre - UST
The Minion is a very well respected tyre.
The UST version comes in two width and one compound (42A).
The 42A compound is sofer to give the best possible grip. The 60A compound is a bit harder for longer life. For out and out performance go with the 42As, but use 60As if you want a set you can leave on your bike all year. As the front tyre wears less than the rear, putting a 42A on the front and a 60A on the back is a good choice.
Typically riders run a Minion F and a Minion R, but some like to run a F on the rear for added grip.
Non-tubeless versions are listed seperately.
Single-ply Minions are also listed seperately which are more suitable for XC use.
