Butcher Grid Gravity Radial T9 TLR Tire

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The Butcher Grid Gravity is the tire I recommend when someone asks what to run up front on serious enduro terrain. Full T9 compound across the entire tread means no compromise between center speed and shoulder grip—this tire is built for confidence, not rolling efficiency."

Some trails earn a tire choice, and those are the ones the Butcher Grid Gravity T9 TLR from Specialized was built for. Steep, technical, post-storm chunder where front-wheel traction isn't a preference—it's the difference between a clean line and a very bad moment. The full GRIPTON T9 compound runs across the entire tread, prioritizing grip over rolling speed at every contact point, and the block-in-block tread architecture puts 12% more rubber on the ground than the previous generation for maximum stability through corners and over broken terrain.

The Grid Gravity 2-ply casing absorbs square-edge impacts and resists the sidewall deformation that single-ply construction can't handle under hard cornering loads on rocky terrain. The tubeless-ready setup seals reliably with sealant, and Specialized co-developed the Butcher with Roval Traverse wheels, where FlatStop bead technology provides additional pinch-flat protection at the interface.
