I just installed a set of 38mm GK SK+ tires on my Salsa Warbird. Had been running the 43mm GK SK tires. Planning on doing a 40 mile gravel ride tomorrow and will post some general thoughts after the ride.

You may want to check out the Sonder Camino Al Apex 1. Right around your price range and has consistently positive reviews. I ride the Apex 1x group on my Salsa Warbird and have no complaints with it. Heavier than SRAM…

FYI I received a "we're sorry" package from Salsa in response to the fork issue on the 2019 Warbird. Package contained a Salsa insulated water bottle, side entry water bottle cage, EXP series rescue roll, EXP series…
