Super happy with my Gravelking SK's, own two sets, 38's and 43's, have ridden these since April 2021 (2/2023 current) Have not had a single flat with either set. 43's are Big Bird Yellow Tubed and the 38's are purple fuscia tubeless. Raced them, Bike packed with them, single track, double track, rocky terrain (aka baby heads) gravel rough, smooth and some railroad ballast. Being in Oregon they have seen wet days to, thus mud. Bought another set in Jan for 2023 season. Depending on the rider, their skills, will result in varied opinions... For me, these are spot on, from slow rides to nuking corners, I'm happy
Solid tubeless gravel tires
I got just about 1000 miles on my pair of 700x38s tubeless before finding a dreaded goats head thorn with the rear tire, directly mid-tread. Wouldn’t seal with the Stans sealant and I didn’t have a plug. Ended up running tubes and they’re now backups. They rolled pretty well and handled chunky gravel and single track. Tread held up well also.
Nice Tires!
I'm very pleased with these tires. They are lightweight and I can take them off with one iron and remount them with no iron at all (just fingers!). I had been running 700x 32 slicks and the subtle tread gives me much more control in sand and gravel but still rolls very nicely on pavement.
Solid for tarmac + light trail duty
I've had 4 sets of these now. They are my go-to for bikes that live mostly on the road and do some light trail duty. I typically run them as clinchers. I tend to keep them at a higher PSI for that reason (over 50) to prevent pinch flats. They roll well on pavement and don't lose traction on hardpack or light gravel. Grass and mud get a little spicy on these, as you would expect, but are rideable. I see some folks have struggled with flats on these. That has not been my experience. I've probably put upwards of 8k miles on the various sets of these tires I've had.
Gravel King tires rule the trail.
These are great tires. Thanks to the guys at REI for directing me toward the tires.
Overall a good tire
Fast on pavement, high-ish volume, side knobs lack bite in loose conditions.
Punctured and ruined in under 12 miles
Purchased a set of 48mm for a gravel bike build. Went out for first ride and lost the rear tire by mile 12, riding on mostly clean pavement. Sealant was unable to seal it. Got it home and tried plugging the hole - still won't seal. Never had an issue with punctures on my road bike. Will be looking into other options for gravel.
Punctures easily
Punctured multiple times with just light gravel and trail riding
Good looking tire
Great tire runs great . Looks good with tan sidewalls.
good, not great
Robust tire, good flat protection. Mediocre grip in loose conditions. Ride is wooden. Long tread life
