Speed Meets Versatility: The Ground Control Flex Lite T5/T7
The Ultimate Lightweight All-Rounder for XC and Trail
The Ground Control Flex Lite T5/T7 is the perfect solution for riders who demand a lightweight, fast-rolling tire without compromising on cornering confidence.

By utilizing the supple Flex Lite casing, this tire shaves weight and improves trail feel, offering a race-ready performance that feels just as at home on local singletrack as it does on the cross-country race course.
