Wear like iron, flat resistant

On: 2008-01-05

Ive used the 1.25 inch version of these for quite sometime now. They are the most flat resistant tire, Ive ever found. Im a heavy (250+ pound) recumbent rider. Most rear tires Ive used are good for a couple flats a month on average, and usually wear out in 1500 miles. These tires average a flat a year, (Im not exaggerating)and I average at least 3000 miles on a rear tire, and yet to wear out a front.
They may have a little more rolling resistance than a Schwalbe Stelvio, but their durability more than makes up for it. Ive cut an old one up to see whats inside, and found a thick orange belt inside. Kendas version of the flak jacket I guess.
Pretty sticky on a dry road, but are a bit slick on wet roads.
