Specialized Air Trak Flex Lite T5/T7 TLR XC Tire

The Specialized Air Trak is the fastest way to the podium, engineered as the lightest and fastest hardpack XC tire in Specialized's lineup. Designed for riders who demand unmatched straight-line velocity and podium-ready performance, every element of the Air Trak is optimized for one purpose, pure XC speed on hardpack terrain.

At the heart of the Air Trak's performance advantage is its dual-compound construction. The fast-rolling center tread cluster uses the high-speed T5 compound to deliver unmatched straight-line rolling efficiency, while the grippier T7 compound on the side knobs provides the traction needed to maintain cornering speed without scrubbing off momentum. This intelligent compound pairing ensures riders never have to choose between speed and control.

Weighing in at just 575 grams, the Air Trak's Flex Lite casing is Specialized's lightest and fastest, delivering lightning-quick acceleration and top climbing performance that makes a measurable difference in race situations. At 60 grams lighter than comparable tires, this weight reduction translates directly into faster acceleration, easier climbing, and reduced fatigue over long XC efforts. Yet light doesn't mean fragile, the Flex Lite casing offers 18% improved resistance to punctures, pinches, and cuts over previous constructions, ensuring race-day reliability when it matters most.

For XC racers and fast trail riders who prioritize hardpack speed above all else, the Air Trak delivers the perfect combination of featherweight construction, rolling efficiency, and reliable protection. When sheer speed matters, this is the tire.

Weight: 575g. Tubeless-ready (TLR). Flex Lite casing with T5 center compound and T7 side compound. 18% improved puncture, pinch, and cut resistance.
