Review: Grips well! - It gripped way better than expected on trails. Great on mountain single track and held up it slippery corners to. Really thought I'd slip out but didn't. Good tire! Review: LIGHT AND GRIPPY TRAIL TIRES - Nice tire for my largely flat, mostly dirt trails. Light, good grip. Punctures pretty easily if thorns are a big issue where you ride. Also, I've snakebitten them a couple of times due to a combination of high speed, hard rocks, and poor technique. Very fast, good grip on dirt trails, good enough to ride on paved sections without feeling like you're pushing a tractor uphill, not great when it comes to thorny puncture or snakebite resistance. I use them front and rear on two bikes 26X1.95 all around. Grippier than they look and easy to push. Would not advise in thorny areas, taking big hits on rocks, or fast downhills where front tire slideout would be disastrous. ## Features - Fast accelerating, hard-pack cross-country tire - Numerous knobs provide multiple contact points with the ground; while having semi-slick speed - Front and Rear application - Folding Bead - ETRTO: 50-559 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B005XS61KC | | Bike Type | Mountain Bike | | Brand | Kenda | | Brand Name | Kenda | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 12 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00047853816532 | | Item Weight | 4 ounces | | Manufacturer | Cycle Force Group | | Material | dual tread compound | | Material Type | dual tread compound | | Tire Type | Clincher | | Tread Type | bead,semi-slick | | UPC | 508939706784 047853604306 047853816532 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Images ![Kenda K-1047 MTB Small Block 8 Folding Bead DTC Bike Tire, Black, 26-Inch x 1.95-Inch - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710MBOp2Q1L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Grips well! *by C***A on May 6, 2016* It gripped way better than expected on trails.
