I'm taking part in a work 'event' soon, on closed bridleway/trails. I took part last year borrowing a CX bike from a colleague which was ideal really, but not sure I have that option this year.
Needing some new rubber soon anyway and have read that the GK's are a good winter option with the ability of some off road riding.
Can anyone who's used them confirm?
Trails the event is on is mostly loose gravel with a few sections of bigger stones etc. Would they hold up?

Yes, but bear in mind they are quite small... so for instance the 26 mm is barely a 25...
Their off road capability is marginally better than that of a slick tyre, don't expect miracles... they won't get you through mud or anything like thatleft the forum March 20230 -
Ah, there's a good point I hadn't thought of haha.
Think I need to borrow/rent a CX bike.0 -

I have some Clement MSO tyres in 32mm on my commuter and they might also suit you if you have clearance in the frame. http://www.probikekit.co.uk/bicycle-tyres/clement-x-plor-mso-clincher-road-tyre-60-tpi-black/10961838.html?utm_source=googleprod&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=gp_cycling&affil=thggpsad&switchcurrency=GBP&shippingcountry=GB&gclid=CLf4s_SL2MYCFYKPHwod8r8F5g&gclsrc=aw.ds&dclid=CP2V1_SL2MYCFUpT2wodnY0Fwg&variation=109618390 -
32's are a no go on my frame.0
