The Panaracer GravelKing range is the benchmark for gravel and all-road tyres, built for riders who want speed on tarmac and confident grip the moment the surface turns to dirt, mud, or loose stone. From the fast-rolling GravelKing SK to the smooth-rolling GravelKing X1, every model in the range shares the same ZSG compound heritage and tubeless-ready construction, but each is tuned for a different kind of adventure. Whether you're riding canal paths on a Sunday, tackling winter lanes on the commute, or loading up for a long-distance gravel route, you'll find a model built for the job.
Finding Your Model: X1, SK, SS and Beyond
Choosing the right GravelKing model comes down to where you actually ride. The GravelKing X1 is the do-it-all option, with a fine file tread that rolls quickly on hardpack and canal towpaths while still offering enough bite for loose corners. The GravelKing SK steps things up with a more aggressive knobbled tread for mixed terrain and rougher trails, where traction matters more than outright speed. If you're mostly on tarmac and smoother gravel, the GravelKing SS (Semi Slick) and Slick options trade some off-road grip for noticeably lower rolling resistance. Each is offered as TLR (tubeless ready), so you can run lower pressures for extra comfort and puncture resistance without the weight of an inner tube.
Sizing for Every Setup, from 700x28 to 700x35
GravelKing tyres are available across a wide range of widths, from narrower 700x28 and 700x30c options suited to fast all-road riding and winter training, through to 700x35 and beyond for riders who want more volume and cushioning on rougher gravel and bikepacking routes. Narrower widths suit riders chasing speed on mixed tarmac and towpaths, while wider options give extra stability and comfort when the terrain gets loose or technical. Some models are also offered in 26in sizing for older gravel and touring frames, so riders don't need to compromise on tread choice just because of wheel size.
Built to Handle Winter and Year-Round Riding
Gravel riding doesn't stop when the weather turns, and the GravelKing range is built with that in mind. The tubeless-ready casing and durable construction across the range help resist punctures on debris-strewn winter lanes and canal paths, while the tread patterns on the SK and X1 models are designed to shed mud and maintain grip when conditions get wet and greasy. Riders who want a dedicated winter or wet-weather setup can also look to the R-Line and Plus (+) variants, which offer additional puncture protection for the riders who cover the most miles regardless of season.
