Just purchased my second pair of Panaracer Gravel Kings. My first pair were 700x28, I have ridden them all over New England on everything from smooth pavement to some of the gnarliest Vermont jeep track that I probably had no business being on with this size tire. They have held up flawlessly. My go-to road tires for years have been Conti Grand Prixs and I might say this tire has as nice of a road feel on pavement. Lower the psi a little and these cruise over hardback dirt and gravel. This 140lb rider has not had a single flat over 1500 miles. Just mounted up my second pair, these are 700x32. I was reminded in the process what a breeze these are to mount to the rims,

I have a road bike that I used for hard packed trail and light gravel. I was using an urban/commuter tire (Kenda Kwest) and slipping a bit around corners so wanted to look for a gravel/trail tire but have limited clearance on my bike. These fit that need pretty good actually at 700x28C. I still dont have the grip I want on light gravel however you cant expect that from this tire given the low profile tread design. In addition, these tires roll faster and smoother on the road then the commuter tire I was using. In summary, worked well for my need but they are a bit pricey - we will see how long they last - I have only ridden about 100kms so far.

I was sent the SK version in error as I had wanted the slicks originally. However it worked in my favour as I decided to keep them. The SKs for small knobs are an excellent all-road tyre. Im running them for a mix of pavement, rough roads, double tracks, and gravel. I don’t feel I have much drawback on the blacktop other than a bit of a whir sound at speed but they don’t feel slow at all. They really shine when I go exploring and go down side roads and trails, I don’t have to worry.Overall they are a great tyre and I don’t see much need to run a different set for the vast majority of my mixed road riding.

I love these! Wasn't sure if I would like the brown walls but I'm glad I opted for them. Certainly jazzed up my Norco Search. They do like to pick up rocks and sling them through the fenders much more than the old tires but that's because they have a lot more tread on them. I just finished a 28 mile road ride and can say that I did not notice any additional drag or noise compared to the Schwalbe Tyago tires that came on the bike. I will take them on a real grav ride soon and I'm sure they will be greatAs far as Sheerness, Google says that's a town in England so I left that one blank ?♂️

5 stars so far based on ease of installation and ability to set up as tubeless. Went on without levers but needed a compressor to seat the beads. Once beads were seated I let all the air out and beads remained seated. 60ml of sealant was added and they held pressure all night. A little sidewall seepage but just a few drops.Measured 28.1mm on 19mm internal width DT Swiss R470db’s.

Only on my first day with these but love them. So light, fast and feel durable.Running about 37psi on 24mm internal carbon rims and they’re fast! Handle great. I have them on a speed pedelec bike (28mph electric motor) and they feel compliant, controlled and durable. Was using 27.5x2.0 maxxis refuse before—good tire but twice the weight of these and not nearly as fun.

Seated nicely tubeless on my HUNT rims. One rim with a hand pump and the other I needed to use the compressor. I ride primarily chip seal and am extremely happy with their performance on our roads, wet and dry. I weigh 195lbs and run the pressure at 55 in the front 59 in the rear and have had not experienced a flat in over 1000 miles with a comfortable ride.

These tires ride great for all purpose. I definitely notice a speed difference when I swapped out from my Conti GP4000s, however the added traction on sandy surfaces is super helpful. The 25C are the ones i'm using on a low clearance italian bike and i'm pretty happy with the versatility of these tires in comparison to straight up slicks.

Decided to go with the 700x26mm brown sidewall tires for a neo-retro build I did last year. Tires are good quality and perform well in different conditions. I am by no means using these in race environments, I typically ride between 17-20mph for distances between 20-100 miles. So far no issues during normal use.

With over 500 miles on these tires I can honestly say they are the best urban tires. I ride on sand, some gravel, and the road. No flats! They roll easily on the road and give a nice grip in sand and gravel. I wouldn't recommend them for serious off-road riding, and that is not what they are intended for.

Great tires. As others have said, very tough to get on the rim. I hope I don't flat. Riding in an 80 mile road/gravel ride on these. I will update on how they performed.Update*** great tire. Gravel, pavement, dirt paths, and a creak bed did not slow these down. Highly recommend.

Excellent choice for anyone who is mostly on pavement but ventures off the pavement once in awhile or for anyone living in an area with where the road conditions or pretty horrible. They roll fast and have tons of grip both on and off road (packed fireroads/country roads).

These tires performed admirably during winter, but I couldn't help but shake the feeling that they felt sluggish compared to the Compass Stampede Pass tires that I usually run. But those are $30 more expensive per tire so I guess you pay for extra speed.

Bought these for a og road bike build. I've bought Clements tan sidewalls before for same project. To me both brands appear exactly the same or very similar in construction just with different side walls and a little different tread. So far no issues

I run these with tubes, pretty durable. Fast enough for roads and great traction on gravel.. best of both worlds. I ran over a screw and the tire held up for a few miles without losing air. A little slow on the climbs though...
