Reviews of KENDA parts For Business

I will add that I saw that Consumer Reports gave a surprisingly good review of the Kenda Vezda Touring 4S.

Dry braking: 4/5

Wet braking: 3/5

Handling: 3/5

Hydroplaning: 3/5

Snow traction: 4/5

Noise: 4/5

Rolling resistance: 3/5

Tested tread life (Miles): 50000

Verdict: "Pros: Impressive snow and ice grip as well as dry braking performance. Cons: 50,000 mile projected tread life based on CR's test is so-so. CR's Take: A great choice if winter traction is a priority."

I have the AT’s on my cannon and they’ve gotten me places a cannon shouldn’t be going. Worn reasonably. Not sure how RTs go but I recommend Kenda.

I mean if you’re really wanting the best value to enjoy gravel riding on your xc bike, tires tires tires. Find a good deal on some Thunder Burt, raceking/dubnital, kenda rush, air trak/renegade, Aspen st and you’re cooking

Not on your list but I have a set of Kenda Klever at2's on both my daily 1st gen taco and my 94 t4r trail rig. I have no complaints about either. Good on road manners and not too loud. Been good in snow and offroad as well.

Maybe I am missing something. The Kenda tire sidewall says 30 - 50 PSI. Normally I would inflate to 45 PSI or so for road use. When I put an inflator on the tires they become quite firm at 15 - 17 PSI and ride well without excessive drag. It also feels right from the thumb on the tread test.

The best tire I have found for this setup is the Kenda K161 Knobby Cross 27x1-3/8 Gum Wall Tire. I have a set on a city bike of similar vintage and geometry and they're really quite good.

I cant speak for the K657 specifically, but I ran a Kenda K761 rear on my CM400. I found that the Kenda tire chipped and fragmented really easily but otherwise was just an OK tire.

Kendas are drift or low budget track tires. They’ll work but might be loud when driving

Absolutely not. Radster trail. Can't get replacement tires anywhere. Particularly the original Kenda Havok Tires that came with it.

I had a set of kenda tires. They look aggressive but are the most slippery tire on the road. I wouldn't buy them again.
