Specialized Soil Searching Tires
What’s mountain biking without trails? We created Specialized Soil Searching to fuel and support the energy and passion of the trail building community. By employing trail builders, hosting dig days, spearheading fundraisers, and telling their stories, we’re creating a community to further the development and maintenance of trail systems that are the lifeblood of our sport. And with our new limited-edition Soil Searching tires we’ve created yet another to way support this critical trail work.
Pedal The Planet Forward
Since 2018, Specialized Soil Searching has provided financial, organizational, and outreach support for trail systems around the world. We focus on three essential and interdependent aspects of trail work—ambassadors, dig days, and fundraisers—to assist communities in maintaining and growing their trail networks. Trail advocacy is the right thing to do for the sport, supporting not just bike riding, but creating sustainable, multi use trails as well.

Trail building requires equipment, time, hard work, and some money to pay for much of the above. We host fundraisers around the world, where you can donate to a trail organization and get a chance to win some amazing gear or even custom Specialized Soil Searching bikes. We also provide grants and bike raffles to qualifying trail organizations, through the Outride Fund.
