[Closed] Minions as XC tyres

I have done and the 60as are fine.

Great tyres , but I found them to be hard work - they do drag quite alot going uphill.

Wonderful on the down bits. If I was younger and fitter it wouldn't matter so much. Definitely noticed the difference when I stopped using them. Shame, its a great tyre.

I would love a 2.1 size and even magazines have mentioned these babies for xc in winter.

Maxxis why u no wristen? 👿

I have the 2.35 60a on my orange 5 and for xc and I think they're great! 100 times better than the conti mountain kings that came on it, yes they don't roll quite as well, but i don't really notice (the mountain kings rolled amazing but when you came to doing down hill or over rocks and roots is was like riding on ice). I tried a high roller on the back and that was a bit more draggy, minions are a great compromise.
