For sustained speed on gravel roads and race courses, Updraft is a clear winner. Our gravel race tire features a fast-rolling modern file tread down the center to maximize acceleration and speed on hard-pack gravel, while supportive shoulder knobs provide assurance through loose and unpredictable corners. At the 2025 Mega Mid South, Teravail athletes Jill Martindale and Matt Acker both ran the Updraft (700 x 50 and 700 x 45, respectively). Jill took home first place in the women's race and set a new FKT, and Matt took first overall. The hot patch artwork was created to elevate both the Teravail classic hot patches and Mid South Gravel.
