Yes. Either would be great, presuming your Hunq is the green edition with the greater clearences. TB's give slight knobby traction which makes a big difference on cambered dirt (packed or loose). If floatation is critical, the SM's would be great. The Compass tires in a 700 x 2.1" on these trails and roads and see how I do, then shift to Smart Sams for winter. Until then it's TB's for me!
