Most gravel tyres from all the leading brands top out at somewhere between 45 and 50mm, pushing the boundaries of traditional gravel bike specifications.
Dylan Johnson's bike setup for Unbound showcases a trend towards bigger tyres, with his 2.2in tyres exceeding the recommended clearance of his race bike.
Despite the size, Johnson found no wattage penalty when comparing his larger tyres to a narrower option, indicating performance is not negatively impacted.
As gravel biking evolves, wider tyres are becoming more mainstream, allowing for better traction and stability over varied terrains.
