Specialized Ground Control

It sits right in the middle. The Ground Control is versatile enough to handle fast cross-country racing, but its Block-In-Block tread design and durable GRID casing provide enough support and grip for more technical trail riding.

Yes, it is 2Bliss Ready, meaning it is designed specifically for tubeless setups. Running it tubeless allows you to take advantage of lower pressures for a more supple ride and better flat protection.

The GRIPTON T7 compound is engineered to prioritize damping and traction. It offers a reliable, sticky feel that helps the tire conform to the ground, giving you confidence on loose dirt and varied trail surfaces.

The design uses an adaptable inner block that pierces the terrain for traction, while the larger outer structure provides stability and speed. This combination ensures you get grip when cornering hard without sacrificing rolling efficiency on straights.

The GRID casing is built with enhanced sidewall protection specifically to handle trail abuse. While it remains light and supple, it is significantly more resistant to cuts and abrasions than a standard, lightweight race casing.
