Am struggling to find what I want.
700cx32(ish) tyres for grrrravel.
Needs to be;
Fast enough on road - Not about winning races, but I still want a fast, good handling tyre
Tough enough for teh grrravel - OK, so no tyre will ever [i]really[/i] cope with Hampshire/Wiltshire flint, but you get the picture
Puncture "resistant" - Again, nothing is able to really be puncture "proof", but some sort of solidity would help
Skinwalls - This is the clincher for me. I want skinwalls. They just look awesome. So shoot me!

To replace a set of Roubaix Pro 700×30/32c Endurants, FWIW.

I was right with you up until the last, I even started a thread similar, I went with the Bonty CX0 in 38, but they do a smaller size.

That reminds me, I need to toddle off & say thanks.

Cheers.

Go to bike shop.
Speak to knowledgeable staff.
Buy the ones which sounds best from the aforementioned shop.

Fit. Fit. Fit... for purpose. Its all about the fit.
