GRAVELKING GK Plus, 700 x 30C, Black/Black

Very satisfied so far with the tires. Installed relatively easily on tubeless carbon rims, but relatively difficult to get them seated with a compressor. I had to use sealant to get them to pop in place. That's not my usual sequence. They roll well on tarmac and for the few times I've been on gravel/dirt/shallow sand they track well. I'm still figuring out the right PSI on my 19mm inner width wheels. Right now ~45, which from tables is low for my weight (160), yet feel very firm to the touch. I may go lower. A good buy at $40, depending on durability and mileage.

I've had these tires (Gravel King Slicks/650bx38mm) on my gravel bike for about 9 weeks, or 501.4 miles (according to my Cateye computer). They still look brand new. I used these to replace the Maxxis Ramber (650bx47mm) super chunky off road tires, since I ride on pavement more than gravel. Not sure what I can say other than I have no issues with these at all. They are much quieter than "off road" tires, as one would expect. I thought my average speed would increase (as tracked by the Cateye computer) since these tires have less rolling resistance, but it didn't really change (sigh). I also like the tan sidewall as opposed to a solid black tire, but that is a matter of opinion. See attached pic.

I was very impressed with the overall quality of this tire. I will consider buying more panaracer products after seeing this one.

These are those tires that are more difficult to install. I usually use my hands but had to use the tire levers for these. The “tan” color of tan wall is somewhat understated so that does not look bling in the first glance. Maybe it would be better for long run. The ride quality of these 40cs is better than my previous Conti Fourseason 32cs and not sluggish either.

One of my favorite tires of all time. The perfect all-road option. Maybe I’m just riding differently than I used to, but I’ve found this pair to have better puncture resistance than previous gravelking slicks I’ve used. This is my go to tire for pretty much everything

I have been a fan of Panaracer GK slicks for quite awhile.. They've redone the lines , I was disappointed they discontinued my 2 favorite sizes, the 32 and the 38, but decided to try the 30s for my FG bike. I relaxed them out of the box a few days, set them in the sun for a bit before I tried to mount them. It usually takes me about 10 minutes to mount them. These were very difficult to get the first side on. So tight I couldn't move them off center to get the valve stem in for the TPU tubes. It just wasn't happening, very disappointing as I thought they may be a great size for this bike. The other thing I noticed is they have arrows on the sidewalls indicating they are directional.. I can't diss the line, I have always liked them, but this set, not so much and that might just be a one off with this set and just my experience. I might have to reconsider trying them again. Fortunately my 32s aren't totally worn out and popped right back on where the've been for many miles.

Running these tires tubeless make a night and day difference!! Im currently running these tires on two of my gravel bikes that i like using for road. They have just the right amount of grip without holding you back. I have not had ONE FLAT! (Knock on wood) since i got these tires! I can't recommend them enough. For those saying they're "too hard to put on", don't listen to those people. If you find these tires too hard to install, you either don't know what you're doing or you have the wrong tire size. Period!!!

I felt faster with these compared to the stock tires of my gravel bike. Ran over a kid and the tires still worked great! Very smooth ride and I would buy them again

Scelta ideale per il gravel veloce o per la stagione estiva. Rispetto al predecessore è stata migliorata la costruzione e anche la protezione dalle forature. Facilità di montaggio esagerata e nessuna perdita di pressione. Credo sia il 40mm più leggero in circolazione!

Bester Mantel für mich, werde ihn definitiv wieder bestellen, Qualitativ hochwertig und super Eigenschaften

I had these on my road bike. Slightly heavier than other competitive brands but have excellent rolling and road feel qualities. Excellent grip on wet roads and Great puncture resistance and look amazing. Well recommended

Good tire. I use it on my commute road bike — no grip or puncture problems. Can't tell anything about disability though, need more time

Montage facile. Claquage des pneus très facile aussi. Pneus de grande qualité. Pour ceux qui trouvent le produit mauvais, peut-être revoir votre façon de monter un pneu tubless 😉
