Review on ๐Ÿ”ฅ Maxxis Minion DHR II WT Dual Compound EXO Tubeless Folding Tire: High-Performance for Maximum Traction by Hector Watkins

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Unfortunately I received a flat tire

This tire has received excellent reviews which I have no doubts about. Unfortunately I think I caught a flat tyre. I used them without a tube and at first thought the tire didn't fit properly. However, after several attempts and closer inspection, he stood up normally, but the tread was crooked. I suspect it was an issue when it was molded or was a bad ball. As a result, the profile has shifted several centimeters to the side, as if the tire had been mounted incorrectly. Since the bus was already assembled, I decided to leave it as it is. I've found that the tire often slips when it shouldn't. I had a terrible time trying to find a good print, low enough to pull, but I still didn't bottom or burp. Note. I have never contacted the seller and this does not reflect them. I had to send it back immediately and it's on me. After about 20 rides, I replaced it with a Maxxis High Roller, although the DHR shows very little wear. It has a similar profile but the grip is better and I didn't have any issues with burping even at low pressure. For me, this confirms once again that the tire sent to me was defective. I may choose a different Minion DHR tire for my next tire as I think it's probably a good tire especially based on the High Roller I'm running. But every product can have a flaw, and unfortunately I'm stuck on one. No problem with DHF, I ordered at the same time from the same seller.

Pros
