Right so I'm gonna go on a weekend off road touring in the Lake District and gonna go for some bigger knobbier tyres so I can able to get through stuff I wasn't able to with the 1.9 Gravel King.
As my bike can handle proper MTB tyres, I'm trying to decide which;
Panaracer Comet 2.0 - cheap and cheerful, roll nicely on the road.
Continental RaceKing 2.2 - supposedly the fastest MTB tyres.
Speed King 2.2 - Look like it be great on tarmac with a bit of knobs.
Schwalbe Thunder Burt 2.1 - supposedly a good all rounder.
I'll get rid of the mudguard to give more clearance and fit wider handlebar/shorter stem, and replace the 46t with a 42t outer chainring (it already got a 11-42t cassette)
