Wicked Will

The Wicked Will is versatile enough for both, but it shines as a rear tire when paired with a more aggressive front tire like the Schwalbe Magic Mary. Its fast-rolling center tread makes it an excellent choice for maintaining speed on the back wheel while still providing enough grip for technical climbs.

Yes, this is a tubeless-ready tire. Running it tubeless allows you to lower your tire pressure for better traction and comfort while significantly reducing the risk of pinch flats.

The Twin Skin construction adds an extra layer of rubber on the sidewalls, which increases durability and cut resistance. While this makes the tire slightly heavier than a race-only version, it provides the peace of mind needed for rocky, technical terrain.

While the Wicked Will handles a variety of conditions well, it is designed more for trail and all-mountain riding than deep mud. The tread pattern is optimized for speed and cornering on hardpack or loose-over-hard terrain rather than clearing thick, sticky mud.

This tire is ideal for trail and all-mountain riding where you need a balance of climbing efficiency and descending control. It is a great 'do-it-all' choice for riders who encounter everything from fast, flowy singletrack to more technical, rocky alpine trails.
