Specialized Butcher Grid Trail Tubeless Mountain Tire (Tan Wall) (29″) (2.3″) (Gripton T9) (Soil Searching)

Description

The latest generation of the World-Cup-proven intermediate tire, the Specialized Butcher Grid Trail Tubeless Mountain Tire, receives an entirely new tread pattern. Wider shoulder knobs better support load under hard cornering, while the biting edges of the shoulder knobs are moved further inside, and the center blocks have been staggered and spaced better for a smoother transition when leaning the bike over. Meanwhile, Specialized’s Gripton compound improves high-frequency damping, attaching the tire to the ground better on both small bumps and rough sections. The low frequencies of the rolling tire deflections pass through unfiltered, leaving no energy absorbed and keeping speed high. Once you ride the Butcher, you’ll never want another tire for your gravity excursions. The new Grid Trail casing is stiffer, delivering better handling at lower pressuresall while increasing pinch flat protection by 15% and puncture protection by 30%. It’s the perfect choice for your gravity excursionsone ride and you’ll be hooked. Building on this solid base, the high-dampening T9 Gripton compound rebounds slowly to grip and stick to the ground for total traction and control. Features: Grid Trail casing is light yet tough with additional bead to bead protection for exceptional durability, sidewall stiffness and stability.
