The Butcher is synonymous with grip and versatility on all types of terrain thanks to its tall side and tread lugs and its round profile. More aggressive than the Purgatory, it benefits from wider side lugs and biting edges placed inward, better supporting the load in tight corners while facilitating and smoothing the transition to the center lugs when you lean the bike. It can be mounted on both the front and rear and provides unwavering grip, comfort, and handling on all terrains. The GRID TRAIL casing benefits from end-to-end pinch and puncture protection from bead to bead. Indeed, it benefits from the same sidewall reinforcements as the GRID casing, plus additional protection under the tread for greater stability and support when the tire is under full load in corners, ensuring an effective shield protecting the entire tire. Finally, it uses our T9 rubber compound offering slower rebound for even more grip. Once you try this new Butcher, you won't want anything else for downhill.
