Gravel grinder tyre choice...

After much research I've settled on the 700x42mm Soma Cazadero as my gravel grinder tyre.

Looks quite a rugged tyre with a continuous centre rail that should roll well, and plenty of lugs for edge grip on the gravel. Weight is a reasonable 510gm.

Not tubeless but the forums report successful ghetto conversions.

Gravel grinder tyres...

The Kenda Kozmik Lite II Pro 29 x 2.0 looks promising.

Tubeless ready, reasonably light with good volume.

The centre tread looks like it will roll fast and the side knobs will give some float and edge grip.
