Designed for downhill riding, the Specialized Hillbilly Grid Trail 29 T9 TLR tire featured here at Escapa excels on steep, slippery, loose, and wet terrain in the continental north. The new Hillbilly is specifically engineered to find traction on ever-changing natural terrain and provide confidence and control in unpredictable conditions. The new tread pattern features an aggressive design with deep center knobs and high-volume side blocks that grip loose soil when cornering. The block-within-block transition knobs reinforce the tire’s structure and improve traction when sliding through deep soil, gripping rock slabs, or riding over slippery roots.
Specialized’s exclusive T9 grip compound elevates the Hillbilly’s traction, allowing it to grip just about anywhere, even in the slipperiest conditions. In addition to its grip in slippery conditions, our T9 compound is formulated to provide just the right amount of cushioning for outdoor adventures, reducing tire bounce and deflection to improve stability and control in challenging conditions.
The GRID Trail’s all-around protection and stability make it an excellent choice for aggressive riding on rough terrain. All you need to do is add sealant, as the Hillbilly is a Tubeless-Ready tire for easy mounting and inflation, with or without a tube.
