Kenda Kwick Roller EZ Ride 700 x 38C Features: Great for long distance touring or just for fun, leisure riding. Excellent wear and puncture resistance Kenda has developed some of the most advanced rubber compounds in the cycling world. Rubber compounds are designed with rolling resistance, grip, durability and puncture resistance in mind. For use on both front and rear
Advantages: Reasonable good grip Disadvantages: Weight
...I used this on the rear of my mountain bike a few years ago. Not the greatest, grip is ok however as is puncture resistance.
Very heavy tyre however, and the rolling resistance is high, giving a tyre that feels slow and heavy to get going - and slugish to climb.
On singletrack it is limited by this too, though the performance does pick up when it is going downhill.
Problem is that unless you have an uplift, you are so worn out by dragging the extra weight around the ride that you can't apprciate it on the downhill bits!
To be honest, there are far better tyres out there, which are lighter AND grippier. Kendas & Contis would fit into this catagory....

Advantages: Great Value, great suspension, good alround bike Disadvantages: Slightly weighty, not much else!
...What a great bike. I bought this in November 2005, and have used and abused it around the trails of the Isle of Man & North Wales since.
Has had a new chain and brake pads, but appart from that has stood up to a lot of abuse very well. Oh, and new tyres too - not that they wear out, just that I am obsesive about trying to find the best tyre to suit my riding!
The rear suspension (specialized's 4 point system) is brilliant, and totally lives up to the hype. I've tried friends bikes and can hand on heart say it is better than all. The front forks are good - but best of all the 100mm travel compliments the rear 100mm so well. Sure 130mm is becoming the norm, but it is far better to have a ballanced bike, with 100mm of excellent suspension than 130mm of rubbish.
The bike excells over slightly downhill singletrack, and the steering...

I wanted to reduce the rate I eat fast food, so I decided to buy this. As a young bachelor, I decided to make out time for my self and start up cooking at least once in a while. Since I got this, I normally cook at least three times in a week, which is... more
