Maxxis Assegai vs Minion DHF vs Minion DHR II vs Shorty Gen 2
Last Fall we compared Maxxis rear tires, which we received lots of positive feedback for. It also left people wondering about which mountain bike tire was best for them on the front of their bikes in certain conditions.
In this video, Mike and Russ give an overview four Maxxis front mountain bike tires (even though one of them is designed for the rear) and compare them each head to head. The Assegai, Minion DHF, Minion DHR II, and the Shorty Gen 2 each excel in certain conditions, but does one tread pattern reign king?

About Me: I grew up hucking my bike off curbs in the suburbs of Chicago. I moved out to the PNW in 2014 and opened The Lost Co in 2016. I freaking love riding long rough descents and really pushing my body to the limit. I'll straight up ride any type of bike but really prefer long travel 27.5" bikes. However, mid-travel 29r's are growing on me...
