Kenda Nevegal Wire Bead Stick-E 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: Light weight, durable well made tyres
Disadvantages: A little pricey

...After finding a set of these on Ebay for half the RRP, I patiently waited for them to arrive, and I was eager to see just how good these tyres were.

Advantages: Grip well in all conditions, durable, roll well
Disadvantages: None I can think of

...just fine on dusty fire road and singletrack. They don't like wet roots, but then neither do I! The tyres corner very well, and I don't think I've ever had a front wheel wash out with these tyres, something that happened a few times to me with other tyres. The durability of the tyre is good, with a rear tyre normally lasting me about 6 months. The tyres are very predictable, and roll well, so aren't slow. I've used these tyres on both of my bikes for for a couple of years now and I'm sticking with them. If you want a tyre you can use all year round, get a pair of these.... Read review
