I've got 42mm Grand Bois Hetres on another bike. They are great, feel plenty fast enough for me, very grippy and sure-footed. I'd like to try the Compass equivilant but the Hetres are taking ages to wear out, plus Compass are $$$

Next set'll be G-One Speed for me as I got some when there was that SJS pricing error. Need to give the GravelKings a proper test but so far not massively impressed...

They do don't they? I managed over 10,000km before the tread in the middle starting to go smooth (and increase chances of punctures).

I'm finding mine pretty skiddy as well. Limited traction up dusty/dirty stuff out of the saddle and on the road when I jam on the brakes.
(Mine are 700×32 though but I assume same compound and all that)
