Specifically interested in what they call the "Winter Gravity" which i gather is based in Malaga using trails lower down from the Sierra Nevada.

Any one been? What are the trails like? Decent company? How does it compare to trails at Fenasosa or those in the Sierra Espuna (for those that have been)?

I've been with them about 5 or 6 times. Great trails, some local ones 5mins from the accomodation some further a field (2hr drive to some of the sierra nevada stuf) but all are good. Mixture of trail grades but all ridable - and all great fun.
I can't recommend them enough, Michael is a great host and good at giving you pointers to improve if thats what you want. They're good at accomadating your prefernce for types of trails too. The standard of guests abilities vary lots but all accomodated.
Digs are quality and have loads of bike fixing workshop stuff.
I'll be back with them in the spring, I usually use it to escape the worst of the UK winter

Will also be away for winter sun! A question for "enduro" based Malaga locals/regulars: what tyres?! 🙂

I usually ride 2.3 High Rollers, but have bigger. Hate to ask, but, well, it would be good to know what's best.
