If you make a grid trail version of the ground control they will sell like hot cakes.

How about making Ground Controls in a 29 x 2.6? This would be a perfect FRONT tire (paired with a 27.5 x 2.4) on my Levo SL for trail-specific riding.

Great xc/trail tyre. They tick all of the boxes for me, grippy tough and fast BUT the 29x2.35 is only available in the tan wall. I'd rather push a mud crab into my ear with a burning stick than run a tan wall tyre. I will absolutely buy these again when then black wall becomes available again.

Since I’m running 27.5 650b on 3.0 tires, this tire has become my only option. I love the tires hook up. Love it more when it’s on sale.

If your on a Levo this tire should be your replacement tire. It’s faster rolling than the stock Eliminator tire on the rear and much more predictable. With gobs of grip and sidewall pliability it aborbs rock gardens with ease.

Gave up nothing traction wise to the Butcher 2.6 it replaced on the front of my Stumpy. The rocky trails here in AZ are tough on tires and I’m impressed so far!

Fast, grippy and durable. Great tire for loose over hardpack.

Bring back the 29x2.6 variant!

Grippy and in control. Love these tires for all conditions and types of trails.

Efficient. Good company.

Running the 27.5x3 and these tires are flying. They have the rolling speed of a 29er with all the grip and rollover of a monster truck. They're not light but your legs don't know otherwise. They roll so good and the corner knobs work amazing. Ran tubeless with a hand pump on a plus tire on the first try. Specialized continues to make the best tires.

good product

Running front and rear to beef up an XC hard tail. Much better grip than previous tire. Hard to find trail tires in 2.2 width so love that they still come in that size.

I got one of the first iterations of this tire many years ago and was sorely disappointed--they just wouldn't hook up like my Captains did. So when I was looking for a new lighter-weight trail tire for my '16 Stumpy, I went against my better judgement and picked up another one of these. I am completely stoked. I've never once had it slip, even on some chunky rocks in NY this past weekend. No matter the trail surface, I can put power down and know this tire on my rear wheel will push me forward. Absolutely love it.

Great tire. Fairly fast rolling and good grip on most terrain!

I have a handful of rides on these tires and they have been awesome. From dry pack to sticky mud.

Great tire. Rolls fast and has decent cornering grip. Using as a rear tire with Eliminator up front. Great fast rolling combo.

Grid sidewall is so stiff that there is no trail feel from the tires. I', 200 lbs riding weight, on a hardtail, in AZ rock and chunk, dropped the rear to 17 psi, tire got squirmy yet still got no vertical compliance. I also felt that the tires handlked quite loose, front washed out very easy in thin loose over hard. Seemed to have great climbing traction though, rolled very fast. Returned, not my cup of tea.

I have ground Control T7 2.35 on front and rear. Still going strong with 7982kilos done on gravel roads without a puncture. No other tire brand for me again, this is the one for keeps.
