Kenda Karma 26 x 1.95 Tubeless Tyre

Advantages: kevlar reinforced belt, reflective sidewalls, design, on or off road suitable
Disadvantages: price is quite high but quality, safety and peace in mind costs

...If you have problems with punctures, feel like wheel is to heave or something to use on o off road - this tyres are definitely for you. I bought them for my bike about 2 years ago. As remember paid about £18 per tyre. They lasted for over one year where cycling about 160 kilometres a week. I was extremely pleased with them. Honestly can not say anything wrong about these tyres. Rolling resistance is very low, so thanks that you should be more about to achieve higher speed. Continental supplied some models with reflective sidewall to increase your safety during nigh. I got this model and have to say that it really works well. As long as you keep your tyres quite clean they will reflect light brilliantly. The weight of a tyre is: - 640g folding option - 690g wired and reflective option - 670g wired only option Installation... Read review

Advantages: good in all conditions
Disadvantages: perhaps master of none?

...As a long-time keen mountain biker I've used many different tyres but for the last couple of years I’ve decided to stick with the Tioga XC's (26’ x 1.95’) as I've been pretty pleased with the performance in all conditions. Admittedly perhaps not king of anything but nevertheless at least competent in all conditions as far as I have experienced and I've done a lot of riding in different places and weather conditions. The knobbles are just the right size teat there isn't too much rolling resistance whilst maintaining plenty of grip on all kinds of surface including lose, wet and dry. The side knobbles also insure cornering stability and if you do push too hard they are quite predictable as they slide. Relatively hard wearing so long as you get the good versions rather than the cheap grey market ones... Highly recommended for all... Read review
