Review on Kenda K-193 Kwest Commuter Wire Bead SRC/PRC Bicycle Tire by Wendell Chapman

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Reliable, durable tire

K193 is a very strong, durable tire at a reasonable price. The 20 inch (406) size is the only tire that can handle the front of our recumbent tandem. They have moderate rolling resistance and are neither very fast nor very slow. Some riders complain about the harsh ride (don't worry. I also use them on a bike for cross country riding. One of the Schwalbe Marathon tires rolls a little better and has a nicer ride and can last longer too. But they cost around $25 % expensive.
