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). |
