Specialized Ground Control Grid Lite T5/T7 Tan TLR Tire Tan Sidewall, 29x2.35

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"The dual-compound setup on this tire is genuinely clever. The T5 center keeps things rolling efficiently on long XC climbs and flat-out singletrack, and when I pushed into corners the T7 shoulder compound bit in right where I needed it. It is the kind of tire that removes the trade-off so I can focus on the ride."Whether the trail ahead is hardpack flow track or a loose-over-hard descent that demands trust in your corners, the Ground Control Grid Lite T5/T7 TLR tire puts a capable answer underfoot for every situation. The secret is in the compound pairing. GRIPTON T5 rubber runs through the center tread for low rolling resistance and extended tread life on the climbs and straights where efficiency matters most. Flip to the shoulders and T7 compound takes over, offering increased mechanical grip precisely when cornering and braking loads spike. The 60TPI Grid Lite casing keeps the overall weight in check while sidewall protection guards against the pinch flats and cuts that cut trail days short.
