Sunlite Kwest Tire 1 95 Black
Although this tire is labeled as a Pyramid Kwest 1.95 it is actually labeled Kenda Kwest. This tire is in my opinion one of the smoothest running tires available. I bought mine from Niagara Cycle, delivery was quick and they have knowledgeable staff. The Kenda.com people have no knowledge of this size tires. I have a set of 1.50's also. This is my second set of this tire and I have logged over 5000 miles on them (in one year)
Pros: Smooth running/rolling, soft compound grips in turns, wide big appearance on the bike. The tires look bigger than 1.95.
Cons: This relates to the soft compound and it is something you live with, it tends to pick up debris on the road. But the shoulder I ride on has lots of �rap on the side of the road. So like anything you have a feature you like, but has drawbacks, I will go for the handling.

BalasHapusI have used these tires before and they are good..bike rides 30% better with less effort..great for older bikers as well
BalasHapusI put a set of these on my hardtail mountain to turn it into more of a hybrid/cruiser bike. I ride mostly on streets and paths. These tires fit that need very well. They are amazingly faster than my old knobbies on the street and have enough body to be suitable for mild off asphalt patches. I run them at the lower end of the pressure range and they are very comfortable on rough roads without sactficing much speed. So far I have not had any puncture issues. These are a good choice for a comfort/hybrid cruiser and still a pretty quick tire for it's size and price.
BalasHapusThese work really great and look sharp! Perfect road tires for a mountain bike. They make it so much easier when riding on pavement and are much quieter. No big deal to use original tubes on these or cruiser tubes so don't spend a fortune on special 26 inch narrower tubes.
BalasHapusThis made all the difference in the world.The lesser rolling resistance and smoothness of this tire plus installing an aero bar shaved 6 min of my ride
BalasHapusGreat product for an unbeatable price. I prefer local shopping but only if it's reasonably close to what I can get it for online. No contest....less than half the price of the lowest local retailer.
