Review on Kenda Endurance 23Mm Black Folding by Robert Yates

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Highly Recommended: Tires

My fixed gear road bike came with Kenda Koncept Lite tires (700 x 23c) and although these tires would be fine if you were on the trail 95% of the time would stay they were terrible to drive the road - I got 2 flat tires in the first 30 miles on the road. So I decided to buy a set of these Kenda Criterion Endurance (700x23c) tires and everything changed from day one. The ride is more responsive and cornering is more predictable and confident, even at lower pressures (probably due to their stiffer sidewalls). In addition, the tires hold air much longer than Koncept tires which can go from 100psi to 20psi in 2 days. I have driven more kilometers with them than with Koncept tires and have never had a flat tire. I highly recommend them. I plan to put in a lot of miles on these tires on a tour of Sedona later this month - I'm sure everything will be fine even with my small 23c tires.

Pros
  • Very Impressive
