Smooth rolling tire on road and hard-pack. Great traction in the corners on gravel.

This is one of the best tires I tried for gravel. At only 490 gr is really a light weight tire.
Highly recommended.

Great intermediate tread CX tire. Likely not bad for wet gravel, but have not had a chance to try that use.

After I crashed in a curve with some new IRC Boken tubeless 40c tires I switched to these tires and so far, so good although I'm not hitting the curves as hard either.

I really like this one in the winter. It wears pretty easily on pavement but is excellent for gravel and light mud.

I have these set up tubeless on my gravel Bike and love riding any surface from pavement to trails to gravel. They feel great and have plenty of traction.

Overall great traction and puncture protection. Tire is definitely catered towards hardback to loose over hard conditions.

These tires feel faster yet more supple than my previous Gravel Kings

Very easy install, fast rolling tire, looks very sharp on my bike.

rolls on the pavement but pretty gripy in the sand/gravel.

Out of 4 tires- I could only get 1 to mount without any wobble in it- not good odds. Went back to gravelking sk- which IMO is in the same category of tire, no problems and a better value.

Ran the 45mm silk shield at the DK200 this weekend. They were fantastic! May have been luck, but I suffered no flats. Easy to mount up. This is a confidence inspiring tire.

These worked well on the Ruby Roubaix. 38s don't float enough on soft, deep gravel, but everywhere else I was rolling well with little resistance at 35 PSI. I got a pinhole leak on the rear late in the ride but never noticed it! Then I saw some sealant on the bottom of the seat bag. You could reduce pressure but the ride was 50% hardpack dirt or good pavement.

Got these installed new on a Lauf true grit. I've ridden the bike for a week (about 115 miles) and both tires have blown out on totally separate rides, necessitating tubes to get me home (one a top tread puncture that didn't plug with sealant the other a very small sidewall pinch that I didn't notice at all until I looked down and saw sealant oozing out of the tire). I'm not huge (180lbs), didn't ride these over fields of glass, and haven't had any issues with the other gravel tires I've used extensively the last couple years (mostly gravelkings), and while I run Maxxis on my MTB, I think these are the weakest gravel tires I've yet ridden on and won't be looking at Maxxis for gravel in the future. The rubber is very soft and the sidewalls weak from my very limited experience on them. If you stay on pavement, or hardpack, you may be fine, but I fear any rougher gravel may be too much for these in many cases. Playing with pressure, when at about 35-38psi, these were bouncy and slippery on loose gravel, and when deflated and run at 27-32psi, they are mush, but grip a little better as long as you're riding straight. It's unfortunate as I'm having to replace both tires on a brand new bike that wasn't cheap. I would not suggest these tires at all, but of course, ymmv.
