Kenda Kwest, Tire, 700x28C, Wire, Clincher, SRC, K-Shield, 22TPI, Black

Hi..I've had kenda tires before ,but never realized how good these tires are..and have used other more expensive road bike tires ..but always come back to kendas and on another recent fixed gear bike purchase a set of kendas were equipped on it..but after trying them out..they are pretty tough and long lasting and I use my bike everyday for work transportation and these kendas handle really well and are fast and cornering doesn't eat these sidewalls..I'm a fast rider and power out of turns with these kendas pretty confidently and rolling resistance is smooth.

People complain about them being heavy but I hardly noticed any difference. Great buy

Got a sidewall blowout after 2 months use. Manufacturer has no meaningful customer support. Tire failed after only 2 months of use. The failure point was the sidewall which was strange since there is no wear or exposure to glass on the sides of the tire. Unfortunately, that ruined the tube as well.They say you get what you pay for. This wasn't an expensive tire but not bottom of the heap either. If I had gotten at least what I paid for I would have been satisfied. Instead I was shipped a substandard product that cost me more than I paid for it. There is no customer support so don't look for any help from them either.

Installed without any trouble and so much better than my 13 yr old Kwest tires.

I mounted both last night in about 10 minutes. Tires went on easily but not too easily for concern. Mounted tires on an old MA2 rim and this morning they measured right at 28mm wide. The label on the tires said 30 TPI not the advertised 60 TPI--no big deal to me. Tires looked attractive and well made. At 80psi they were rock hard. Went for a 30 min ride and they were a little heavy and stiff riding which was no surprise. Cornered very well. As to flats it's too early to tell. For the money I paid I'm very happy with these so far. Note: I used a skinny 20-25mm tube and there was NO pinching when inflating the tires. Pumped them right up to 80psi no problem.

Great tires

Great Product Fast shipping

This tire is actually a replacement for the same model, etc. that I bought several months back. Why, because the tire I had to replace, the exact same tire from Kendra was out-of-round. It took a bike shop pro to tell me why my wife's brakes were suddenly rubbing when I changed the rubber on her road bike using OEM tires before a long tour. This tire did eliminate the problem but it cost me the price of another tire. So, if you buy these tires and find a wobble or rubbing brakes on your bike, I might be an out-of-round Kendra tire.
