Review on Versatile Gravel King SK 700 x 32 cm Folding Tire for All-Terrain Adventures by Bruce Marable

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very good tires on rubber

I really liked these tires after my first ride (only 44 miles, 56 of which were in packed dirt, gravel, the rest tarmac). The tire performed well on all of these surfaces. It was quick on pavement, had good traction in packed dirt with some loose sand on it, and even in the small areas I found in mud, broken pavement and loose gravel I felt a definite improvement in traction and cornering versus the Kenda tire. and fort. They used to be on my bike. Regarding the installation - a bit difficult at first, but not terrible (I use them with normal tubes). After a day on the bike I had to replace the pinched inner tube and can fit the tire onto the rim without levering (and I don't have unusually strong hands anyway) which allows them to stretch nicely. They also look pretty good if you ask me, but that's a subjective thing. everything - I recommend these tires for gravel/cross bikes and would buy them again at any time.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
