I am an old roadie, moving into sometimes road, sometimes gravel/dirt. Probably 80/20. I ride a Giant Defy, mostly flat lands in south Louisiana, occasionally hills. Anyone have experience or recommendations for the two tires I've found that look appropriate: The Specialized Roubaix Pro 2Bliss vs. the Vittorio Terreno Zero. Comfort, rolling resistance on pavement?

From what I've found online, the Vittorio seems like "gravel lite"....more geared toward hard-pack gravel with occasional road, whereas the Specialized looks more like a road tire that can handle occasional dirt, Size will be 700x32.

(Perhaps another option is just go with the new tubeless Continental GP5000 700x32 and deflate whenever I get to dirt?)

Thanks in advance,
David
