Near impossible to fit, but once on thankfully good puncture resistance
These were the most difficult difficult tyres to fit I have ever had. Mavic UST rims. It took nearly an hour and bent 4 parkside levers getting the last bit of tyre over the rim. Even getting one side on before inserting the tube required 3 tyre levers next to each other. Imagine trying to fit a car tyre by hand and you'll be close to the experience. There is literally no stretch in the bead, and they feel like they must be 10mm under sized to the rim. Such a shame because once they were on they proved to be fast and resilient to punctures but I cant go too remote incase I do get a puncture and am stranded unable to change the tube.
Best balance of attributes
Tried most of the top tier gravel tires, settled on these. As a racer, puncture resistance is at the top of my list second is low rolling resistance. Other tires do this well but give up shock absorption of grip. The Power Gravels have great shock absorption and grip. The tradeoff is faster wear than some other gravel tires. For me, that's acceptable. I don't care how long a tire lasts if I'm constantly getting flats and crashing because of low grip. Raced BWR, Unbound and Crusher in the Tushar as well as weekly training rides on mine. Mostly hardpack or loose over hardpack. My theory as to why they ride and grip sop well is that the puncture belt is stretchy. That allows some suppleness. I've ridden other tires with good puncture resistance that rode like rocks unless you ran them with almost no air in them. My 40C Michelins are still supple at 32-34psi.
A good tyre but Impossible to fit
As has been said here this is a decent tyre but frankly useless because it is near impossible to mount it even in the workshop with many tools .... on the road if a tube was needed, well, just ring the taxi and give up would be my advice. Shame but if you still want some, I have 2 brand new 35-622 available
Michelin's perfect blend of grip and low rolling resistance
Got these tires for my Fuji hybrid bicycle. like the low rolling resistance to near minimal. Grips great on gravel. Overall a great handling tire that I would recommend.

No Flats at Unbound
Brand new with extra sealant and 0 flats at Unbound on 40’s. Good grip in the mud sections as well. Did not use any inserts.

A fine tire
Good grip, rolls fast, mounts easily, no air loss as a tubeless tire and no flats.
