Very good, don't see how these would be any different on gravel than any road focused tire, the sipes are just wide enough for water removal. That's poor mileage to square off so quick, were you riding 2 u? that's a heavy-ish bike? thanks
It is a street tire no question, just felt better shoulder season (prob. In my head). I ride one up, but quick and tidy. Curb is allegedly 513lb. Not crazy heavy. Tire is still going strong. Just punting it around town. Will get it down to cords and swap the set.
11,000km is not bad for such a soft compound... maybe if you ran the correct width it might have added another few thousand KM to it? Like instead of 7000 miles, 8000-9000 miles? Just a thought.
@adam346 what do you mean? 190 is the correct width. The side profile was bit taller at 55..it makes zero difference. 7300km...not miles! Not that soft of a compound.
@@otmuppet oh, damn. My mistake, I misheard. I am sorry they only lasted that long for you, I have no idea why then... everyone else is talking in miles since most English speakers are either UK or US. I would look into why yours only lasted so long, most people talk in the 7000-9000 miles not km...
@adam346 no worries! No idea. Pressures were correct, and I use the bike as intended, but vary the riding and avoid long straight stretches. It wore evenly, but not impressed with the wear. Got Dunlop RS4s now. Feel vg

Forgot to mention. It's not squaring off. Wearing very even, just center thread on rear is disappearing quick.
