Anti-Puncture Tyres At-a-glance

Bike radar question TBH.
Only cant be arsed to join BikeRadar.

I am hoping to take my fixed gear bicycle on a mountain jaunt, but the last bit is 5 km on gravel road (I'd describe it more as compacted sand and gravel), and has a climb of 1:8.

Much as I love my veloflexs, I am a bit unsure about using them for this. My first thought was of the classic Vittoria Pave in 27mm.

Any opinions on these tyres?
Should I just HTFU and stick to my Velofexs (20mm front, 22mm rear)?

The Vittoria Pave are designed to cope with wet cobblestones, not hard packed gravel. I bought a pair to use as a winter tyre a few years back and they were cut to pieces in a matter of weeks. They are a race tyre and not up to heavy usage on gravel strewn English lanes. The Veloflex are probably a bit too lightweight too.

Personally I'd go for a pair of Rubino Pros as they are quite cheap and you could re-use them later.
