Our Thoughts
The Cross King is a useful all-rounder when your rides include a mix of trail surfaces. It rolls well for longer outings while retaining enough tread for cornering on less predictable ground.
Check your rim compatibility and make sure your frame or fork has enough clearance for a 2.2-inch tyre before ordering.
