Sorry, I am of no help as where to get them, but currently using said Pirelli Gravel M in 45mm, and really love them. They come up a bit wider at 47mm, and are touch heavy. But roll really good on pavement don't clog up too badly, and do behave rather well in deep sand. Really reliable, too.

I also run G-one Ultrabite/Bite combo in 650b seize and didn't like them as much. Squirrelly on hard surfaces (flexy side knobs), did quite ok on softer ground, but not enough of an allrounder for me.
Thanks Marcin! That was the kind of feedback I was after.
Now to try and find somewhere that has two Cinturato™ Gravel M in stock...
There are theories at the bottom of my jargon.
