According to the product specialist
Pros
The Speed King offers very low rolling resistance on hard / dry terrain, which makes it perfect for gravel riding. |
The PureGrip provides an excellent balance between grip and durability. |
The Speed King is a slightly narrower option for your gravel bike, or a standard size for your cyclo-cross bike used on gravel. |
The Cyclo X-King Performance tyres are well suited to muddy surfaces thanks to their coarse tread. |
As less mud sticks to the tyre because of the coarse profile, you can accelerate faster after cornering! |
The higher studs on the sides provide more grip in the corners. |
The Grifo tread, but at a lower price. |
These tyres are great on forest surfaces or sand. |
Cons
This tyre is less suitable for wet and muddy courses. |
When the surface is drier, this tyre has relatively high rolling resistance. |
The less expensive rubber offers less grip on wet branches and frozen surfaces. |
