Gravel tires have been trending progressively larger, with most bikes now coming with ones 40 mm-wide or more. It wasn’t that long ago, however, that gravel bikes were coming with 35-38 mm rubber.

CyclingTips Field Test group bike tests are never paid for by the participants, but they’re still only possible with some outside assistance.
CyclingTips would like to thank the generous support of Assos for this year’s Field Test.
