The all - new Hillbilly MTB tire is a beast for raw and wild riding. It's gravity - focused, perfect for the steep, slippery, loose, and wet conditions in the continental north. This tire is specifically designed to grip shifty natural terrain, giving you confidence and control in the unpredictable wild.
The new tread pattern is super aggressive. It has deep center knobs and high - volume shoulder blocks that can bite through loose soil when you're cornering. The block - in - block transition knobs strengthen the tire structure, boost traction, and reduce rolling resistance whether you're plowing through deep loam, riding on rock slabs, or charging over slippery roots.
Specialized's exclusive Sticky Fast T9 rubber compound takes the Hillbilly's traction to the next level. It sticks everywhere, even in the greasiest conditions. Besides great grip, the T9 compound also provides the right amount of damping, reducing tire bounce and deflection for better stability and control in tough situations.
This tubeless - ready trail tire comes in GRID Trail or GRID Gravity casing, suitable for trail, all - mountain, enduro, and downhill riding. GRID Trail offers bead - to - bead protection and stability, ideal for aggressive riding on rough trails. GRID Gravity is a tough two - ply construction for durability and puncture protection in extreme conditions, providing great strength and stability when cornering hard or hitting jumps. Just add sealant as the Hillbilly is a 2Bliss ready clincher, easy to mount and inflate with or without tubes.
Using your Hillbilly MTB tire is easy. First, if you choose to go tubeless, add sealant as it's a 2Bliss ready clincher. You can mount and inflate it with or without tubes. For different riding styles, pick the right casing: GRID Trail for rough trails and GRID Gravity for extreme conditions.
When riding, the tire will perform best on steep, slippery, and loose terrains in the continental north. Its aggressive tread and special rubber compound will give you good traction and control.
As for maintenance, regularly check the tire for any cuts, punctures, or signs of wear. If you notice any issues, repair or replace the tire as needed. Keep the tire clean to make sure the tread can work effectively. Also, check the sealant level if you're using a tubeless setup and add more if necessary. With proper care, your Hillbilly tire will serve you well for a long time.
