  • Looking at some new gravel tyres and thinking I'm gonna settle on the Conti Terra Speeds (40mm as my frame tops at 43ish).

    • Have a 5/5 rating from BicycleRollingResistance tests, which accounts for grip, puncture-protection too
    • SwissSide tested and found it was a surprisingly 'aero' tyre despite being knobbly, even more so than e.g. the popular GravelKings.
    • More personal, but I've had much better experience with puncture protection on Contis than any other tyres I've used (e.g. Vittoria and Schwalbe competitors).
    • Perception - More generally, I find that Conti tyres review the best overall in actual tests for what they're designed to do.

    And the bad:

    • Price
    • Always a tight fit and thus hard to install

    Of course, the BRR and Swiss Side tests don't say much about real world-use, so anyone here used/owned these, before I hit the Buy button?
