Cannibal Grid Gravity T9
Enduro / DH / Park · 2Bliss Ready · 1330g+

World Cup-developed gravity tire: designed with Loïc Bruni, Finn Iles, and Chris Grice to devour World Cup Downhill tracks. Specialized completely redesigned the Cannibal tread pattern, integrating their super-sticky GRIPTON T9 compound with a high-volume Grid Gravity casing for superior control on any terrain. Staggered shoulder blocks maximize cornering stability, and massive center braking blocks bite aggressively into the ground. The Cannibal delivers the unbeatable combination of grip, confidence, and control to devour any track — and the reviews back it up: 4.8 stars from 17 riders who say it's the grippiest tire they've ever ridden.

  • GRIPTON T9 Compound: Specialized's stickiest compound — reduces terrain-induced chatter, enhances confidence at high speed.
  • World Cup Pedigree: Developed with Loïc Bruni, Finn Iles, and Chris Grice for World Cup DH tracks.
  • Staggered Shoulder Blocks: Maximize cornering stability at high speed — predictable even at race pace.
  • Massive Center Braking Blocks: Wide braking edges cut in for maximum deceleration on steep descents.
  • Grid Gravity 2-Ply Casing: Enduro, Park, and DH-rated construction for the most demanding riding.
  • 2Bliss Ready: Protects against pinch flats, cuts, and punctures — tubeless-compatible.

Use: Enduro racing, Downhill, and bike park riding — anywhere you need maximum grip and control at speed. The Cannibal is the tire that World Cup pros reach for when the track is at its worst. Notable pairing from reviews: Butcher Grid Gravity front + Cannibal rear for a balanced gravity setup with more grip up front and drive control in the rear.

T9 — Maximum Grip, Minimal Chatter
GRIPTON T9 is Specialized's softest, stickiest compound — the compound that World Cup gravity riders demand. On the Cannibal, T9 reduces terrain-induced chatter: the tire deforms into the ground rather than bouncing off it, maintaining traction through rough sections that would unsettle lesser tires. Riders describe it as the grippiest tire they've ever ridden — more grip than Maxxis Assegai or DHF. The tradeoff is wear: T9 is soft, and some reviewers noted center knob wear after just 2 enduro races. Worth it for the grip on race day.
High-Volume Casing + Grid Gravity
The Cannibal's high-volume casing deforms more into the terrain than standard casings, increasing the contact patch for more grip. Grid Gravity 2-ply construction provides the durability for enduro, park, and DH riding without the weight of a dedicated DH tire. Combined with 2Bliss Ready technology, you get tubeless setup with protection against pinch flats and punctures. One reviewer (6'4", 230lbs, running Cushcore inserts) has put in significant park time with no flats — the casing handles real-world abuse.
Tread Design — Built for Speed and Control
The redesigned Cannibal tread integrates staggered shoulder blocks — they alternate orientation to maximize cornering stability at high speed while maintaining predictable breakaway behavior. Large center braking blocks have wide edges that bite aggressively for maximum deceleration on steep descents. Redesigned center knobs and siping create strong surface connections for confident handling through mixed terrain. The result: a tire that grips through corners, stops when you need it to, and clears mud well — the complete gravity package.
