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.
This tyre has an ideal tread pattern for dry conditions.
Because of the Graphene 2.0 this tyre is very fast while having excellent puncture resistance.
The cotton carcass makes this tyre very flexible.
This tire is tubeless-ready, so you can ride with lower tire pressure with less risk of a puncture.
The versatile stud profile can be used on all types of terrain.
The 120 TPI carcass made of nylon is durable and wear-resistant.
Cons
This tyre is less suitable for wet and muddy courses.
The tyre has less grip on damp or wet terrain.
Not hookless compatible.
The focus on versatility means that this tyre does not excel in any one performance area (speed, grip or durability).
