The Ultimate multi terrain tire.
This tire works well in all conditions. Adjusting the tire pressure lower, allows you to ride slow and technical. Increased pressure, allows you to ride fast, controlled, and really rip!

These are the summer meats for my otherwise-winter bike. Changing to these is faster than pulling all the studs out. ;)
Noticeably stiffer than my Cake Eaters, and quite a bit smaller. Occasionally pedal strike, but nothing that can't be dealt with, certainly not a deal-breaker. Heaps of traction on loose stuff. Feels more like my 27.5 "plus" bike, but with endless grip and slower. If you like the "tank-traction" feel of a fatbike without the bouncy bloat from really fat tires, these seem like a great compromise.

I had been looking over a year for a replacement tire and was relieved to finally find one with this Maxxis Minion. But this tire is so much more. It rolls well on flat trails and grips great on single track. Let the fun roll!

Excellent tire for my Fatboy
Excellent tire. Easy to install with or without tubes. Rolls smoothly on hard pack or road and bites perfectly in the sand, mud, and snow.
