Building on the success of the standard Gravelking and the Gravelking - ”both industry leading tyres in the gravel category - Panaracer has developed the next generation of the gravel tires in the Gravelking SS and SS+. Designed as a dryer condition, race day ready and fast rolling tire, the SS/SS+ was made for those riders who want to go fast while maintaining great control, traction and climbing prowess. The SS and SS+ feature an all-new tread pattern consisting of a smoother, diamond pattern center with more aggressive side lugs. This tread pattern allows the rider to keep speed going into corners and maintain control throughout any transition a gravel ride could present. The Gravelking SS incorporates a supple 120 TPI casing with a nylon puncture resistant belt and Panaracer's proprietary ZSG (Zero Slip Grip) compound. The SS+ uses the same build as the SS but adds a bead-to-bead layer of Panaracer's ProTite puncture material for even more protection against tread and sidewall cuts for those extra demanding courses or rides with sharp flint rock.
