Recent tests on gravel bike tyres at the Silverstone Sports Engineering Hub reveal that tyre choice greatly impacts performance in gravel biking. Unlike road bike tyres, gravel tyres have a more significant effect due to their larger size and varied tread patterns, which are essential for maintaining grip on diverse surfaces. The study examines the influence of tyre width, tread, and casing independently, helping cyclists make informed decisions. Despite direct comparisons being challenging due to varied tyre options, a detailed analysis provides valuable insights into the wattage differences that can affect race outcomes.
The rolling resistance has a greater sway on your overall performance in gravel biking, thus making tyre choice crucial for maintaining optimal speed and grip.
Getting your tyre setup right can have significant wattage implications for aerodynamics in top-end gravel racing, showcasing the importance of proper selection.
