    Kenda Kwest 20 x 1 1/8 a durable smooth rolling tire
  

*by S***T on Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2015*

This is a review for the Kwest 20 x 1 1/8, which is a 28-451 bike tire, the taller of the 20" tires commonly found on recumbent bikes.  I wish Amazon would be more clear on bike tire sizing!  If your tire says 406 on it this isn't for you!  I've had a change of heart with this tire after wearing out several Schwalbe Duranos on my Varna Handcycle, these easily last 3 times as long and seem to have about the same rolling resistance.  I just replaced a 26 x 1.5 on my SWB recumbent after 11 years and thousands of miles, was getting a bit hard and I wanted a narrower tire.  Couldn't seem to wear it out.  The price is great!  So I'm back to these as training tires and Primo Champ 19-451 to race unless the course is rough, then these stay on.  Please note the tread on these tires is made to roll in one direction, it matters which way they face when mounting.

    WILL TURN A MOUNTAIN BIKE INTO A ROAD WARRIOR
  

*by S***. on Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2015*

I like these tires. Before I was using the Kenda K838 tires which were size 26x1.95 and those were good though a little heavy. They were also making my ride a little slower due to the large contact surface to the ground. They did have amazing tread though, but I decided to go with these 26x1.5 size tires to gain a little speed and lose some weight. Let me tell that these tires did just that. Made my ride a lot faster though a little bumpier just because these are higher pressure. I run these at about 50psi which is half the recommended just because my bike pump can't go that high haha. My goal was to turn my mountain bike into somewhat of a road machine and the closest i got was to a hybrid bike which I'm happy with. The only thing I will say is that you cannot by any means go into slushy muddy area with these and if you do yuo'er better off getting of yuo're bike and just walking it to the other end. Took a bad fall trying to get through mud not to mention the tires looked like crap (i've cleaned them now). They have no traction in mud and will slip everywhere, however on road they are beast at taking sharp corners and hold pretty well on any dry surface even gravel or dry grass (possibly)saved the labels because will probably buy these again should i get a new bike.  would recommend to anyone looking for faster ride strictly (not smoother)

    Uneven thickness in tread?
  

*by A***M on Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2020*

These tires aren't bad, per se, but they have no tread indication. I can ride them about 1600miles, give or take a couple hundred, and then they suddenly blow out bad. It seems to me that the density isn't even along the entire tread. I commute 10 miles to work, so it makes for a long walk when they do blow.
