Product Information
This X-GRIP "The Escalator" tire is purpose-built for extreme enduro riders who demand maximum traction in the toughest terrain. Developed for race use, this tire features X-GRIP's exclusive “STICKY” rubber compound, engineered with high silica content for unmatched grip and a distinct no-bounce-back feel that’s a true game-changer in technical riding.
Unlike conventional tires, the Escalator’s unique compound behaves almost like plastic—soft, sticky, and incredibly pliable—allowing it to conform to rock, root, and hard-pack surfaces with ease. The aggressive tread design and increased sidewall knob count deliver superior climbing traction and lateral stability, while the flexible yet reinforced carcass improves handling at low pressures without sacrificing control.
While not designed for longevity, this tire excels in short-format or 1-day events, where maximum performance is key. Despite its race-bred DNA, the Escalator is DOT-approved (E-marked) for road legality—rare for a tire in this performance category. It's a premium solution for riders who prioritize grip above all else.
