As for tires on a combined road and gravel use, I just tubeless installed the WTB Byway 650b x 47mm. an my Cannondale Topstone Neo Carbon 3. They are fast and easy rolling, quiet and grippy on pavement and quite good on gravel too. It looks like I could even get away with 50mm (2") tires on this bike but the 47mm are nearly ideal. No room for fixed fenders beyond 42mm on the bike, but the SKS Shock blade front and X-Blade rear work quite well, going on and off in mere seconds.
