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

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nearly perfect!

I love this tire! I bought a few and they were just amazing! I was converting my MTB into something more than a hybrid road bike and these tires were just what I needed! I originally had MTB tires and the rolling resistance was terribly obvious. I switched to 2+ inch wide commuter tires and they had lower rolling resistance but still felt sluggish compared to my 700x23c firm tires. Then I bought a pair of these kendas and the difference was like night and day. They were narrower and reduced the effort required to turn the wheels. They are slightly thicker than the 700x23c but offer more comfort. I will definitely buy them again!
