Specialized Hillbilly Tire

The Hillbilly is specifically designed for loose, soft, or muddy terrain. Its tread pattern features deep-penetrating center blocks that bite into soft ground, making it an excellent choice for wet or unpredictable trail conditions.

The T9 compound is a high-dampening rubber that rebounds slowly. This allows the tire to conform to trail irregularities rather than bouncing off them, which significantly improves traction and control on technical sections.

Yes, it features aggressive shoulder knobs specifically engineered to provide reliable support and grip when you are leaning the bike into high-speed corners.

It is a tubeless-ready (TLR) tire, meaning it can be set up without an inner tube if you use tubeless-compatible rims, sealant, and valves. It can also be used with a standard inner tube if you prefer.

It uses the GRID Trail casing, which includes bead-to-bead protection. This construction balances weight efficiency with robust durability, offering solid protection against sidewall cuts and punctures on rocky or sharp terrain.

The 29-inch version of the Hillbilly Trail tire weighs 1070 grams. While not the lightest option on the market, this weight reflects the reinforced casing and durable construction needed for aggressive trail riding.
