The Hutchinson Griffus 2.40 is designed for competitive enduro and all-mountain riders who demand a balance of high-speed rolling efficiency and aggressive cornering control. Featuring a specialized tri-compound construction and a reinforced casing, it offers elite-level grip across diverse terrain; however, its robust 1,030g weight may be slightly heavy for riders focused exclusively on weight-sensitive cross-country disciplines.

Yes, it is designed as a versatile performer that can be used on both wheels, though some riders prefer it as a front tire paired with a faster-rolling rear option.
No, it fits standard 29-inch mountain bike rims, but it is highly recommended to use tubeless-ready rims for a secure, airtight seal.
It uses three different rubber hardnesses to provide low rolling resistance in the center and maximum grip on the shoulders while maintaining high durability.
While it can be used on an XC bike, its 1,030g weight and aggressive tread are optimized for enduro and all-mountain riding rather than pure XC racing.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and ozone sources to prevent rubber degradation.
Ensure the bead is pushed into the center channel of the rim all the way around before inflating, and use a soapy water solution to help the bead slide into place.
Check that the valve core is tightened correctly and ensure the rim tape has no punctures or lifting edges.
This tire is designed for 29-inch wheels with a 57mm cross-section. Ensure your rim width is appropriate to support a 2.40 width for optimal tire profile. While the tire is Tubeless Ready, you will need high-quality tubeless rim tape, a tubeless-compatible valve, and liquid sealant to complete the setup. For maintenance, check your sealant levels every 3-6 months depending on local climate. If you prefer a tube setup, the folding bead is compatible with standard Presta valve tubes, though the tubeless configuration is recommended to fully realize the performance benefits of the casing.
