Reviews like this including Andrew’s additional comments on his experience is fantastic. One reason I think that Maxxis remain popular is that they are a known commodity. We all know how a DHF and DHR2 perform. Not many riders are willing to spend over $200 for a pair of tires that may not be to their liking so many of us buy what we know.
Similarly shops don’t want to order a shit load of tires that won’t sell. At one point my local shop told me that Continental required that they order a large minimum number. They wouldn’t sell small amounts.
