• What would you consider reasonable quick? I used WTB nanos and cross boss and they were decent, but not proper road tire quick. Tire wear is other consideration, knobs wear fast in the road

  • I understand that no knobby tyre can compare with a road one. I just want something not too draggy and durable enough so I could bring it on some week-long bikepacking trip on mixed roads (including sometimes long tarmac sections). Form the reviews it seems that GK SK should be able to match that, but any direct experience would be appreciated.

  • Challenge Almanzo/Dune or IRC Serac sand tyres are actually very quick on pavement.

  • Maybe look at G-One? there's only 40mm and 57mm option, other choice is the G-One Speed in 50mm, they're slightly more race-like.

  • I understand that no knobby tyre can compare with a road one.

    The G-one Allround gets surprisingly close and has good grip on dry dirt and short grass. I wonder if the tread-shape is actually pretty aero? Bobbles innit. Laminar flow bro.
