I ride gravel surfaces with my Gran Bois Hetre tires without any problem whatsoever. They have a smooth tire surface. I realize you're probably not running 650B, but the point is that a gravel surface does not necessarily mean tread is needed. I have also ridden Panaracer Pasela tires on the same gravel surface without incident.
