Tread Designed as the perfect partner in crime to the DHF, the DHRII was built from the ground up to be a rear specific tyre. With big, ramped centre lugs the DHRII will slow you down in a hurry. DHF derived side knobs give excellent cornering traction, allowing the DHRII to be used on the front as well as the rear. Casings EXO+ The EXO+ sidewall is a step-up in puncture protection from the EXO, but not as protective as the heavier DoubleDown casing. Giving a good balance between weight and rigidity it’s a popular choice for Trail and Enduro Riders. Double Down DoubleDown is Maxxis’ heavy duty sidewall for heavy duty Enduro and DH application. The only casing tougher is the wire bead DH casing. DoubleDown is a 2 ply construction with a bead insert giving incredible stability and support, allowing riders to run lower pressures without risking puncture. Compound MaxxTerra Maxxis’ MaxxTerra compound set gives a good blend between longevity and traction. While not as soft as the full traction but fast wearing MaxxGrip, a MaxxTerra tyre will last longer and roll slightly faster while still providing good levels of traction.
