Review by Uncle JoeReviewed 4/9/2018by Uncle JoeCycling EnthusiastTaos NM3 of 3 customers found this review helpful.Vast improvementStill have my early eighties Fugi ( among others ) Has 27 non hooked rims and have had trouble with tires
blowing off the rim under pressure. So, years ago I was sold a pair of Chen Shin tires. Very heavy and
crude. Even had trouble centering the bead on the rim. Years go by, I've had enough ! I take a chance
and order the Kenda K40s ( gumwall good for classic authenticity ) Wow ! what a tire should be.
Mounts like a dream, no rim problems, It's light, flexible and rolls out smoooth. On first ride I immediatly
feel the reduced effort req'd to pedal. Feels like I gained 10 horsepower ! To top it off Bike Tires Direct
had them on sale. Value Five and one half stars ! Joel , Taos NM

Review by mikeReviewed 9/5/2013by mikeCasual CyclistMemphis Tn.6 of 6 customers found this review helpful.Rides very comfortably As a 56 yo 15 mi. round trip commuter and casual rider I find that the K40's 27x 1 3/8 has a better ride and a more solid feel than the K 35's 27x 1 1/4 that I have on another vintage bike that I also ride. I prefer a blackwall tire but for the price I cant complain.

Review by Bicycle BobReviewed 3/28/2013by Bicycle BobCycling EnthusiastCharles Town, WV.14 of 15 customers found this review helpful.Tough tire for Schwinn Super Le Tour Bike.This tire wore over a year on a short commute (2 miles) back and forth over shoulders, in highway driving, and small town biking. I would recommend this tire
for commuting, and road trips(under 50 miles, one way) They also make a Kevlar center strip tire,which I have also used and highly recommend that.
I have been biking over 40 years, and know quality tires, Kenda always comes through.
