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

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great tires at a great price!

I have been using Kenda kwest 26x1.5 65psi tires for almost five years without a single problem and VERY few flats. I had problems with the front tire but that was due to another user not inflating the tire enough. Now about these tires. I chose 100psi to see how they would feel and they are great! The bikes roll very smoothly and so far everything seems fine. If you need to save a few bucks, these tires are the way to go. They work great on my converted MTB! I first posted this on May 7th and it is now August 19th. Tires in excellent condition, mileage 900 km. None is flat and the profile looks like new. I saw someone complain about the tire feeling stiff but I didn't feel much of a difference. However, they went from 45psi to 100psi, I went from 65psi to 100. So yeah, you'll feel the difference riding that big jump per square inch. But I wanted it from my tire.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Operating speed
