• Yeah! I love these big slicks, loads of fun. Thinking maybe of those aqua green Gravel King SKs to give it some colour (& some grip) in future, not yet fully decided.

    I'm not a huge fan of the brake track on the rim, but I did get these wheels for free. Two friends were riding Hope 20Five wheels at the weekend & I was eyeing them up. Think I can manage to get them at trade so am thinking of getting some of those in future, it deserves some nicer wheels.

  • You could always use a big marker pen to black out the brake tracks for now? Although I wonder how well it'd last if muddy/wet.

  • A friend of mine really rates the Gravel King SKs - though it seems you have to run them tubeless unless you like stopping to fix flats.
    I had loads of fun riding a 140k gravel race in the rain on Schwalbe Big Apples.
