I found the Rock n Roads to be more capable in moderate mud and trail than the Gravelking SK. The RnR tread is more like the RH Steilacoom, whereas the SK is probably more akin to a Thunder Burt tread--has a bit of bite, but looses it quicker on the rougher stuff. I'm usually not in a particular hurry, but I don't like to feel bogged down by rubber. I find all four tires fast enough on pavement, none have that riding in soft asphalt feeling. (I only have the TB in 26" and more recently 650B, the other 3 all 700C. I think the RnR are underrated. They are a bit heavier, perhaps, but I like the rubber compound. I'm building a wheelset with them in mind, to go on my BG Hikari. Only fitting.
