Here in Nothern Arkansas there are a lot of hard gravel roads then paved in my area. I am not looking to speed down back roads but would like input as to a good fire road/gravel tire ? There will be no trail or single track riding.
Scorpion trail.awesome on pavement,and great on gravel.its the only other tire I've tried except stock.big improvement ..and I ride dirt and gravel all time.
Ive just fitted a Mitas E-09 Dakar knobby on the front of mine. Their website suggests its an 80/20 (80% offroad) tyre, but Id say its more 50/50. It provides better grip than the the Anakee and Tourance on gravel, yet still maintains decent grip and longevity on sealed roads.
Heres a pic of mine. Ill be sticking one on the rear very soon...
