"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I count on the Gila XC for everything from fast-paced XC rides to aggressive downcountry trails. It grips loose corners, charges through rocky sections, and stays light enough for big climbing days.""We ride harder, faster, and with more confidence when we're rolling on the Hutchinson Gila XC. Engineered to balance speed with aggressive grip, the Gila XC keeps us connected to the trail whether we're racing, exploring, or charging technical terrain. The progressive tread design features recessed center sipes for flexible traction over rocks and loose surfaces, while cantilevered shoulder blocks bite deep into corners when we need to lean the bike over. Available with lightweight and reinforced Sideskin constructions and optimized with mono- or bi-compound rubber, the Gila XC offers the ideal blend of efficiency, control, and durability across XC, trail, and downcountry adventures."
