    Yeah, do my best to stay away from mud. I also don’t ride on rainy days.

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    Not needing them at the moment but when I do decide to replace my tires I will check. Also, when out riding yesterday at times I had to go off pavement and it was nice to know I had good traction. I will have to really consider this in the future. Maybe there is a good middle of the ground tire...

    When I go to their site I find it but it will only allow me to select Presta 48mm valve. All the others are grayed out. Maybe they are just out of stock. Thank you for showing me this.

    Amazing! Tire industry say’s“ Let’s see how many ways can we confuse the customer”. Many of us are simpletons, just put out one standard and stick by it.

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    Yes, I have the same questions as you have, was this one that slipped by and do not understand all the good reviews. The guy had to have known as he folded them like he did and bind the two ends with plastic wire ties. If not then I have no explanation. I do not understand all the 5 star...

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    Because the sidewall on one side buckled and I spent 2 hours just trying to get it half way on and when I put the original back on I was so frustrated the tube was still inside the original and partially inflated I put it on that way without taking the tube out and totally deflating it and in...

    We are talking diameter not length lol I did inflate the tube inside the tire to check diameter and appears to be 3 in not 4. Get your head out of the gutter ;) I took the tires and tubes to Goodwill this morning. Cleaning things up around house and cleaned and lubricated the chain and checked...

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    You know after trying to put those Wanda tires on that were labeled 26”x4” they just did not look 4” wide but maybe 3” including the tubes also. Last night I mentioned those tires to my wife and she said “those are not 4” tires. Now I know I am not seeing things. But if so how was they getting...

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    Not a big deal really, I just found it curious they do not show them. On another note, I hate getting some things (tires etc) off Amazon because I get the feeling from the reviews the 3rd party companies that actually have store front business may be peddling off returns that had issues on...

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    Kenda offers one tire for 26”x4” wheel. Why do they not seem to have a tube to fit? I increased the tire pressure from 16- 20psi and bike had better control and less noise yesterday. Doesn’t seem too bad on street now. I just need to clean and lubricate the chain.

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    Gionnirocket, I think they will do well from what I read here and on the internet concerning Kenda Tires. With a thread count of 30 they are not meant to be as soft and smooth as the scwabbe with a thread count of 60. To me, anything has got to be better than knobby’s on pavement. If I was...

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    The Kenda Cursor seems to be the best 4” choice for my mostly road use. Wanda Tire I bought that has issues that occurred when trying to install (sidewall buckling) and the dealer stating “I have sold 1000 of these and no one else has ever complained” sent me an email wanting a...

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    So it is not a sealed hump but allows air on both above and below it, correct? Also, am I to assume this is for tubeless mounting?

    What is that “hump” in the tire. Looks like a partition of some kind

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    Gionirocket, I understand. Good Analogy. I had just read the comparison with Michelin and Kenda for cars and said basically same thing. Pedaluma, I do not understand Crotched tires. Never seen one. What is the deal with that?

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    Gionirocket, how would you rate Kenda to Schwalbe (not considering the ease of installing) as to ride, issues, etc?

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    I used soap. I would not do tubeless at this time as I do not have a compressor to provide enough air to force the bead to seal.
