I did ride them, with gravelking sk 32 and tubes in my canyon endurace and that worked more than fine, did some gravel, mud, singletrack and it performed better than expected. Right now I set them up tubeless with…
I got them, they were on offer with some schwalbe tires a couple of weeks ago. They look good, not the most pretty wheels I have ever seen but I think they will look sturdy in my gravelbike I'm building atm. When I…

Having no experience with gravel bikes but wanting to build a bike from scratch I wonder. I ride a canyon endurace size M roadbike with a 0,5 cm spacer and a 90mm stem. A 696 size 560 reach is 3 mm longer and stack is…
