When Panaracer broke news of more colo(u)r options for the company’s venerable Gravelking and Gravelking SK tyres, feedback was positively overwhelming from followers of the Gravel Cyclist website. Panaracer were always onto a winner with their brown-sidewall Gravelking tyres, but the new colors have taken their popularity to a new level.
As alluded to in the first article, there was mention of a third color, adding to Military Green and Nile Blue. I was privy to the new color, but didn’t want to post anything until I’d received samples and had a chance to mount them to some wheels and go ride!
The new color, Ivory, with tan sidewalls.
You may be thinking… ivory on a tyre destined for dirt and gravel roads? Is Panaracer serious?
The good news is the Ivory color holds up pretty well to dirt and gravel abuse – see further down the article for some action photos.
Just like the other two color options, Ivory is expected to be shipping sometime middle of October in 2018.

Even More Colo(u)r Options!
So, now we’re aware of the three new colors. But, to further add to your color selection dilemma, Panaracer is offering them all with the choice of black or brown sidewalls, in both the regular Gravelking (file tread) and Gravelking SK (semi-knob). Sample Graveking SK photos by Panaracer below:

JOM.. cannot get a definitive answer: Panaracer GravelKing SK..700×32..tubeless or not..
Bike tires Direct says NO yet Competitive Cyclist says YES.
cheers
S
I think yes. Best way to find out is to give it a whirl.
Stephen, the 32’s are TLC up to 60 PSI, MAXIMUM. And work best on rims that have an inner width of 23mm or less.
thanks
I guess I’m a purist, but I think tires should be black. Love the tan sidewalls, but that’s where it ends for me.

These tyres are definitely not for everyone, but judging from most people’s reaction, I predict Panaracer will sell these out.
Always wash your tires on the colorfast setting then spin-dry on low heat.
Any plans to do the colors of the sk in 650b?
Yeah, those are f$&#%g dope
Where is the pink with hello kitty logo? Nope.nope.nope.
Ahhh … can’t find white/tan for my GR260!
Question … do sk’s come in 60 and 120 tpi ? if yes … which would you recommend?
SK’s come in one TPI count only. If there were a choice, I’d take higher TPI every time.
