Works great!
Great tire for the cost. I use this tire for both on and off-road riding. They serve this purpose well. No issues thus far. Would recommend.

good fat city tire
Good in dry and wet conditions, haven't seen snow yet. Rolls well and smooth esp for a fat tire. Doesn't corner as well as the 1.5 Kwest, this one feeling like it prevents me from leaning in too far, forcing me to slow in tight corners.

Meaty yet light
A great hard trail tire for my urban beater, lots of surface area for a smooth ride.

Very nice low rolling resistance tires I've used em in the rain and sun great going on the street
Very low rolling resistance tire, easy to install, I like that there is a bit of tread on the sides for me to corner with comfortably,

Really nice and quiet
I turned my Nishiki Alien into a daily rider and needed street tires. These roll super smoothly and quiet also. So far good grip on corners but I'm not going low enough to scrap peddles yet.
Very low prices. My only issue so far has been tube slipping causing flats. I fixed that now though.

Nice tires
About 100 miles on tires as of now. So far so good. Exactly what I was looking for. Will see how fast they wear off during the next riding season. I think I will buy again. Thanks

Nice street tire at a nice price
I replaced some knobby tires on a hybrid I was repairing with these. They went on without a problem and seem to have a nice feel.
