I'd like to throw in a vote for the Bruce Gordon rock 'n road tires, 700x
43. I have those on my Sam, under fenders, and they're great. I like the
way they corner better than the UD Rosé's squishy triangle knobs.

I had a 60cm Cheviot and 48 knobbies from Rene Herse fit fine. I ended up
riding 38 slicks (Barlow Pass) as they felt better on pavement on that bike
and handled all the gravel and trails that I was doing at the time. I loved
both tires and the bike, but prefer the capability and clearance with
Forgot to mention I have a pair of Ultradynamico Cava Jff 42's- thinking
about trying these but heard they are prone to flats

I have the LBB 700x38s on a Sam-ish bike and they do just fine for mixed /
gravel use. They are heavy, but can be run at low pressure for a dampened
ride. They are true to size and bigger than the undersized 700x38
GravelKing slicks I have on another bike.
My Platypus has 700x50 GravelKing
Maybe I’ll be alone in this, but… Just ride it! For the type of riding on a
Chev, microknobs/file tread doesn’t help much. If you run bigger knobbies,
it may actually be dangerous with the tire clearance maxed out. Any stone
picked up by the tread could jam against the fork or chain/seat stays.
The Standard Casing Rene Herse Pumpkin Ridge would be my pick for a Cheviut.
