The Cannonball looks like a Challenge Gravel Grinder clone EXCEPT (1) that it's tubeless ready and (2) that it's about 35% heavier. YIKES!

I mean, the Gravel Grinder seems pretty flat-prone in chunky Kansas gravel, so there's definitely a tradeoff to be made in favor of durability.

You're the first person I've ever seen say the Gravel Grinder is flat prone. I've got over 4,500 miles on the Challenge Gravel Grinder Race tires, between two sets -- including a DK200 -- and I have literally never had a flat.

Likely a small sample size, then. The only guy I ride with who has them had a ton of flats in the first few hundred miles.
