Pay attention to the directional arrow when installing - 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 desertcart AI Checked 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. Review: Breathing new life into a MTB! - I had Kenda 26X2.10 tubeless knobby tires on my bike. After looking at many options I decided to stick with Kenda, as it is manufactured by Kenda under their brand Sunlite. Also, my bike mechanic gave the thumbs up as his experience with Kenda/Sunlite tires was very good. I was looking for improved rolling and I got it. I feel comfortable cornering while riding mostly pavement and groomed trails. I love how my bike looks too! It's like I got a new bike! When I get the opportunity I will try a moderate trail and update my review. ## Features - Sale includes pair of tires - 26 x 1.95" - Recommended Maximum PSI is 40-65 - Wire beads increase durability - Directional grooves channel water to the outer tire edge ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00RDDRVHW | | Best Sellers Rank | #74,644 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #333 in Bike Tires | | Bike Type | Mountain Bike, Road Bike | | Brand | Kenda | | Brand Name | Kenda | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 848 Reviews | | Item Diameter | 26 inches | | Item Weight | 4 pounds | | Item Width | 1.95 inches | | Manufacturer | Kenda | | Manufacturer Part Number | K838 | | Material Type | Rubber | | Model Number | SG_B00RDDRVHW_US | | Number of Items | 1 | | Size | "26x1.95""" | | Tire Type | Tubeless | | Tread Type | directional,grooved,slick | | Warranty Type | No Warranty | | Wheel Size | 26 inches | ## Product Details - **Bike Type:** Mountain Bike, Road Bike - **Brand:** Kenda - **Item Diameter:** 26 inches - **Item Width:** 1.95 inches - **Material:** Rubber - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Size:** "26x1.95""" - **Tire Type:** Tubeless - **Warranty Type:** No Warranty - **Wheel Size:** 26 inches ## Images ![City Slick Mountain Tire K838,Black,26x1.95" Pair - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71cM39yqccL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great tire for commuting.
