KendaCity Slick Mountain Tire K838,Black,26x1.95" Pair

These tires are great and a sweet deal. I ride with my girlfriend now. We stick mostly to the road. The hum of knobby tires is gone and the roll really nice in comparison to knobbys.

Updating this review in January 2025. Finally replacing a pair of these after 14 years of steady use. Tread is still OK but the rubber is cracking down to the casing in the grooves. Can't complain after so many years, so much use and so much weather.These tires have a directional tread; better to channel water away from the center of the tire. See the attached photo for the sidewall marking. BTW-this is opposite from the advice of the Amazon AIChecked the Kenda website and looks like these are no longer made by the company...but are still available online from other sources. Just bought a replacement pair from "Bike Liquidators" for less than $40 for the pair. Figured I'd do it now while still available....probably no hope they will still be around when this pair wears out :-(Bike still going strong, Bafang kit still going strong, me a little slower, but new tires are great :-)Original Review - June 2024:Put a pair of these on a 1999 Cannondale F1000 with a Bafang mid-drive 750W electric motor kit. I use this bike for commuting and errands. Replaced a pair of Maxxis Holy Rollers and the Kendas are much better for pavement, gravel and smooth dirt; improving both speed and distance. Handling is great and quieter than knobbies too.I use Sunlite puncture resistant tubes, adding weight, but hey, it's got a motor. Extended hard shoulders on these tires also increase weight a little but give a wider profile on soft ground and protect the sidewalls from damage. So far, so good, knock on wood.Installed the tires many years ago and they are still rolling just fine; wear is minimal but starting to show age. Probably need to think about getting another pair sometime and will definitely replace them with another pair just like the current pair.Highly recommend.

This is a great seller! Item exactly as described. Was delivered a day early. Good quality bicycle tire!

I use these on my mountain bike which I ride soley on pavement any more. They work great there. They hold their pressure and they role smooth with as little resistance as one could expect. They seem to be wearing well too. I will probably buy another set once I've worn these down, but that will probably be a while. They were very easy to install.

I am satisfied with these tires even though I’ve only installed them and haven’t ridden.I like kenda tires but beware on these, as mine DO NOT have a direction arrow noting the rotation direction.Update: I have now ridden about 17 miles and am very pleased with the ride. They ride much better than the slightly knobby kenda’s I had on the bike.

I bought 2 sets of these tires. Great price Seem to be high quality, time will tell

Pulled a pair of 2.125" mountain bike tires off an old bike and install these. They fit fine on the original rim, with no clearance issues and make for a super fast and comfortable ride on pavement. It's made a huge difference in the comfort of the bike.

I've had these on my bike for a few months that i ride for an hour daily and they have been great so far. Great wet and dry traction and a game changer for riding mountain bike on the street. The mostly slick tread pattern exponentially reduces rolling resistance over knobby off road tires and makes the ride so much more enjoyable.
