I know, a tyre question ๐Ÿ™„

What's good, light and fast for a mainly road commute - bit of gravel/rough track thrown in but not much. I was given some Michelin wildgripper city's 1.5" a couple of years ago, ok but not that light, so been using them but got a slash from flint on an undercliff track a while ago so now avoid that bit of the route but think it might be wise to get some new one's soon? should I go for 1" tyres, would they be ok for the odd bit of rough or stick to something a like 1.5" ?

I know a road bike would be a better choice but sometimes I go a slightly different way to avoid traffic so it gets a bit rough sometimes.

Yeah, looked at those, I'm trawling through CRC to see what they've got and read reviews. I've got some hybrid type MTB tyres on at the mo but they're a bit draggy and making it hard work.
