Simplemind - I ran Resolutes for Trans Iowa. As soon as I got home I switched back to the Gravel Kings that started this thread. If I lived in the mid west I would run a gravel king SK or Resolute every day. Here in SC…
I have had no issues with mine. I would not want to ride on that. I would send a picture to Panaracer.
Ran a 34/32 last year. I will be running a 34/34 for Trans Iowa and will run the same next time I do the Bootlegger.
The last two years the course has been marked great. I will look to see what one I have. Mileage should be 109
Two bottles will be good with all the stops. The first year was very wet. I ran Maxis Ramblers with no problem,. The mud is not like DK or Landrun.
I have not been at the pointy end of a race in a long time and I am not a climber so my goal for a ride like this is to finish. Last year it was a training race for DK. I like the larger GK’s. You can run lower pressure…
I have done it the past two years. Can’t do it this year as it is the week before Trans Iowa. First year I ran maxis ramblers and last year I ran panaracer GK 40’s. Measure 43. I like the panaracers better. I ran lower…
I weight 175 and am running 30/35. The GK is much stiffer than the Compass.
2slow2bfast - Thanks for the advise. I will give it a try! \n \n
Bob - When are you going to be up my way for a ride? \n \n
I have the Gravel King 38mm slick set up tubeless. Works great, weight is 322/323, set up easy. I use them just as you are looking to do. I had a lot of trouble with Bon Jon’s. Go back and look at the thread named…
My 520 has a battery life of 7 - 8 hours. At DK I started with the battery pack plugged in and it died after 8 hours. After that I was on the 520 battery. That worked great for DK but will not for Trans Iowa. I will…
I used a 520 for DK last year and it stayed plugged in the entire time. My problem is my battery pack only last about 8 hours.
Setup on I9 I25’s they measure 37.9 and 38.4. 30mm from rim to top of tire.
Thanks LBC
They set up very easy as all of my Gravel Kings in the past have. One measures 37.9 and the other 38.4. I will measure the width and height tomorrow. It will be interesting to see if the get any bigger after they sit…
322 and 323 weight
I think Santa is brining me a pair. I will weight the as soon as I can.

Give Joe a call. I just decided that I did not need to reinvent the wheel and it was worth the money if it helps me get through TI.
