No Margin. No Mercy. Meet the Minion DHX.
Over the last decade, World Cup Downhill racing has seen an evolution to steeper, faster, and gnarlier tracks and highly dedicated athletes pushing the boundaries of their bodies and their equipment more than ever before. With those higher demands, tires have been pushed to their limits…until now.
The all new Minion DHX was born specifically from the demands of Maxxis’ top athletes to provide more support, more control, and more confidence on these next level modern DH race tracks.
Our engineers have been hard at work taking feedback from our athletes, improving casing structure, improving compound compositions, and improving tread layout and stability to accomplish one goal: Give the world’s fastest athletes a tire that goes as hard as they do.
Introducing the Minion DHX.
With a long list of podiums in 2025/26 already, and wins by Jackson Goldstone at both 2025 Champery World Champs & Mont-Sainte-Anne World Cup, and by Luca Shaw at 2026 Loudenvielle World Cup, success aboard the Minion DHX is off to a ripping start!
