The world's fastest riders always crave more traction. When Loïc Bruni, Finn Iles, and Chris Grice from the Gravity team asked us to create a mountain bike tire for World Cup Downhill tracks, Specialized crafted a tire that satisfies the most demanding riders. The Cannibal tread pattern is completely redesigned. It combines the super - sticky GRIPTON® T9 compound with a high - volume casing, offering superior control on any terrain. Staggered shoulder blocks boost cornering stability, and large center braking blocks grip the ground firmly. Engineered to our riders' specs, the Cannibal balances weight and durability with its GRID Gravity casing for Enduro, Downhill, and Park riding. It offers an unbeatable mix of grip, confidence, and control for any track.
Features:
- High - volume casing and staggered shoulder blocks ensure predictable high - speed cornering.
- Re - designed center knobs and siping create strong surface connections.
- Wide braking edges and large center blocks provide maximum deceleration.
- GRIPTON® T9 compound reduces terrain - induced chatter, increasing confidence at high speeds.
- Compliant and adaptable GRID GRAVITY 2 - ply casing is perfect for Enduro, Park, and Downhill riding.
- 2Bliss Ready technology protects against pinch flats, cuts, and punctures.
- Find the recommended air pressure for 27.5' and 29' mountain bike tires.

Using the Cannibal mountain bike tire is straightforward. First, make sure to check the recommended air pressure for your 27.5' or 29' bike. This will help you get the best performance out of the tire. When riding, you'll notice how well it grips the ground, especially when cornering at high speeds. The wide braking edges and large center blocks give you great control when you need to slow down. As for maintenance, regularly inspect the tire for any cuts, punctures, or signs of wear. The 2Bliss Ready technology helps protect against flats, but it's still a good idea to keep an eye on it. After a long ride, you can clean the tire with a mild soap and water to remove any dirt or debris. This will help keep the GRIPTON® T9 compound in good condition and ensure the tire lasts longer.
