Description

WTB Judge TCS Tough High Grip SG1 27.5″ MTB Tire – Rear-Specific Dominance

When the trail gets rowdy, steep, and unpredictable, the WTB Judge steps in to lay down the law. This aggressive, rear-specific tire is built for gravity-fed lines, enduro abuse, and e-MTB thrashing. Whether you’re smashing rock gardens, railing corners, or muscling through loam, the Judge keeps your rear wheel glued to the terrain.

Why You Want It

• Rear-Specific Design: Alternating wide and ramped center knobs dig deep for braking traction, while massive side knobs deliver consistent cornering grip in loose, rocky, or wet terrain.
• TCS Tough Casing: Dual-ply bead-to-bead protection makes this WTB’s most robust casing—designed for zero-compromise durability in the harshest conditions.
• High Grip Compound (HG): A glue-like 45a durometer outer layer clings to roots and rock, while the 60a base keeps things stable under load.
• TriTec Rubber Compound: Three-layer construction offers a firm base, a medium center tread, and softer shoulders for killer performance across all surfaces.
• SG1 + IP+ Puncture Protection: Extended bead-to-tread cap armor protects against slices, pinch flats, and harsh landings.
• E-Bike Rated (E50): Certified to handle e-MTB power and speed, up to 50 km/h.
