Specialized Butcher GRID 2Bliss Ready

Yes, this tire is 2Bliss Ready, meaning it is designed to be run tubeless with the appropriate sealant and rim tape. This setup helps reduce weight and allows you to run lower pressures for better traction.

The Butcher is an intermediate tire designed for gravity riding and technical trails. Its tread pattern and GRIPTON compound excel on loose, rough terrain where you need reliable cornering grip and braking stability.

The GRID casing is built for durability, providing extra sidewall protection against cuts and pinch flats. While it is robust enough for aggressive gravity riding, it maintains enough suppleness to conform to the trail for consistent grip.

No, this specific model is not rated for e-bike use. We recommend looking for tires specifically designated as e-bike compatible to handle the additional weight and torque of an electric motor.

You should run this tire between 15 and 30 PSI. The ideal pressure will depend on your riding style, total system weight, and the trail conditions, so it is best to experiment within this range to find your preferred balance of support and grip.

The GRIPTON compound is engineered to offer high-frequency damping, which helps the tire absorb vibrations from small bumps and rough surfaces. This improves traction without sacrificing rolling speed, as it prevents the tire from absorbing too much energy on larger impacts.
