Unfortunately, they don't last that long on gravel... :-(
Anyway, I'll try the TKC80's, so I'm about to find out how long they last and what their gravel grip is like.
When it comes to asphalt grip - well, in my experience & IMHO, anything that is round and black is good enough for asphalt unless you're on a road racing circuit.
