American Classic's second generation of gravel tires yields a great tire in the new Kimberlite 700x50c tire...a great tire for a super price!
are 120tpi and weighed in at 621gr, which is pretty good but still a bit hefty. Not a Rene Herse tire weight for sure, but also not a $90+ tire either. The WTB Venture would be a more suitable comparison. The Venture, in the 700x50c size, 120tpi comes in at 617gr and costs $76. So there is a tiny, bit of difference in weight between these two tires. My impression is that you are basically trading weight for durability and puncture resistance with the Kimberlites.
Cornering is good on the Kimberlite, both on paved and hardpack trail riding. Taking corners on one of my favorite paved winding, downhill descents resulted in many ear-to-ear smiles as the speeds were climbing with zero hesitation while fully trusting the tire’s cornering abilities.The tires are really fast on hardpacked dirt trails, while only faltering and losing traction on soft, rutted climbs and the occasional slide while cornering on loose-over-hard surfaces.
