Great tire for the combined GAP and C&O trail ride

I really like these tires. Put them on my mountain bike and took 18 Boy Scouts down the Great Allegheny Passage and C&O Tow Path (340 miles from Pittsburgh PA to Washington DC). The tires made the asphalt trail portions easier and had great traction on the gravel and mudd portions of this 340 mile ride. Many of our riders purchased these tires and they had no flats on the ride.

Thank you for your feedback.

The best of both

Love these tires! No resistance for street riding (my town is all hills), yet substantial enough for dirt roads and walking trails. Great value as some area bike shops wanted $50, not including tubes and installation. Thanks!

Thank you for your feedback.

Great tire!!!

Since I will be doing more paved riding than off road. I chose these tires. They work and ride great. I recommend these to any one wanting to ride on pavement with their mtn bike.

Thank you for your feedback.

My go-to Slickrock tires

Put them on in the Spring before heading to Moab and leave them on until the rains set in up here in the Fall.

I bought a pair of these for paved and gravel road S24O touring.

I received prompt delivery after ordering from BTD several weeks ago. The tires work well to date at least on paved roads and the little bit of gravel surface I've encountered in town. Still waiting to go out on the weekend with the bike, however.

Thank you for your feedback.

good for street and dirt use

Used on my trip down the Califoria cost from Lompoc to San Diego. Was a great ride. Great on the street and good on sand/off road for the trip. I had a good ride using these tires.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great for the money.

I bought two sets of these for mine and my friend's mountain bikes. We don't do much off-road riding so we wanted something a little more suitable for the road and paths that are not too extreme. These tires turned out to be way more than expected.

The only real negative to the tire is how thin the walls are. It was twisted around to be ship, as are most tires, but it didn't want to go back to its regular for a while. With the walls being pretty thin and the shape being a little messed up, they were a little difficult to keep on the rim at first but once the tube has some air in it, its fine.

Now for the positives. First of all, its cheap and for someone that doesn't have much money, I would strongly suggest buying this product. These tires have also proven to be quite strong, I haven't even had one sand-bur go through them. The best thing about these tires is the boost in speed that it gives. I usually ride a road bike and the speed of a mountain bike usually does not compare. These tires, if you are riding on pavement or something hard, provide great traction and a huge burst in speed.

Thank you for your feedback.

exceeded my expectations

Half of my road is paved the other is quite rough and usually muddy. These tires are a dream come true on the highway and also work very well in the muck. I was pleasantly surprised. I have been bike riding for at least 45 years and was stuck using the more aggressive tires for traction up until now.

Thank you for your feedback.

Five Star Mountain Bike Tire

I use these tires on my Smith and Wesson Perimeter. They give me great road speed and the knobs grip on tight turns and dirt roads.

These were way underpriced and I cant believe Kenda stopped production. The best tire I ever had for city/slight dirt. You wont be dissapointed. Buy Now!!

good commuter tire

I threw two of these on my commuter. Very smooth rolling but good traction when I am on the crushed granite trails. I would buy these again when they wear out.

awesome tire

got these on sale at ** bucks a piece. what an amazing price for these great tires. i took them on the c& o canal ( 99% unpaved ) they handled predictably and even in heavy rain and mud never lost control despite having a smooth center tread. as well i had exceeded the max psi to almost 80 and never got a flat i rode these for a total of 113 miles with no hiccups. an amazing tire from kenda!!!

Grips on the street and in the dirt - perfect for a Hybrid even in the rain !!

The price was really good for what you get. I'll go off trail a lot but mainly get there by the road. Many times get caught in the rain as well. This tire adapts to all those conditions. When in the dirt, the side knobbies claw the ground just at the right time and point to give you the traction to make it up relatively steep hills with loose gravel or dirt.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good tire for the price

Mostly paved trails and roads with a little dirt riding. Tires have performed very well. Did have one flat but that was due to some broken glass on the road. Over 400 miles with no other issues.
