The latest generation of the World-Cup-proven intermediate tire the Butcher CONTROL 2 Bliss Ready receives an entirely new tread pattern. Wider shoulder knobs better support load under hard cornering while the biting edges of the shoulder knobs are moved further inside & the center blocks have been staggered & spaced better for a smoother transition when leaning the bike over. Meanwhile our proprietary GRIPTON compound improves high frequency damping attaching the tire to the ground better on both small bumps & rough sections. The low frequencies of the rolling tire deflections pass through unfiltered leaving no energy absorbed & keeping speed high. Once you ride the Butcher youll never want another tire for your gravity excursions. Its the perfect choice for your gravity excursions—one ride & youll be hooked.
