Control the Unpredictable: The Hillbilly T9

Dominant Traction for Loose, Wet, and Technical Terrain

Designed specifically to excel in the steep, slippery, and loose soil of the continental north, this gravity-focused tire finds grip where others slide. Its aggressive tread pattern features deep-profile center spikes to penetrate soft ground and high-volume shoulder blocks that provide a secure bite in deep-loam corners. Whether you are navigating greasy rock slabs or charging through a maze of wet roots, the Hillbilly delivers the confidence and control needed to master the wild.

Why the Hillbilly T9 Wins

• Ultimate Damping: The T9 compound doesn’t just grip; it filters out trail chatter and reduces tire deflection, keeping your bike composed through high-frequency hits.

• Unmatched Wet-Weather Grip: Specifically formulated to stick to the “greasiest” surfaces, providing predictable handling even after a storm.
• Versatile Protection: The GRID Trail casing offers a perfect balance of sidewall stiffness and weight for aggressive trail and enduro riders.
