Tires?
#1
Hey everyone!
Please, share your opinion and experience about cyclocross/gravel bike tires. What are good cyclocross tires for newbies? I am on the lookout for good deals and mostly looking for a reliable grip.

Schwalbe won't let you down, so anything of the gravel models from them has to work well.
Check below the gravel tyres, such as X-One Allround, X-One Bite or G-One Bite (that's my personal choice).

Thank you, got a pair of G-One bite. Have not tested them yet, but I am sure excited.

My set of G-One Bite gets 9/10 so far, from a few months and about 600 miles of gravel biking. Before purchasing, I read that they might be less durable than some of their "main competitors" but it has not been like that in my case. No punctures so far, no signs of heavy use. Good grip and they boost my confidence on the road. Sharp corners, technical roads are no worry to me.
