Description:The Kenda Juarez Dred Tread DTC Kevlar Tire is a fast rolling tire. Tinker designed it using our Dual Tread Compound to provide needed cornering grip with the added benefit of longer wear in the tire's center and low rolling resistance. Each knob on the tire accomplishes a specific duty and Kenda added Tinker's initials on the side knobs for that personal touch. The Kenda Juarez Dred Tread DTC Kevlar Tire features Dual Tread Compound (DTC) for longer tread life and added traction, low profile knobs for more race speed, lightweight and fast rolling, and is for front or rear use.

$35.00 | | Purchased At: | Price Point | | Strengths: | This tire has really great traction in slippery areas. It gave me confidence in leafy corners, and also worked well in loose gravel. This tire is fast and light, almost too light. | | Weaknesses: | I used this tire on two rides. I put about 30 miles on it and then it failed. On my second ride I blew out a tube. A medium size thorn went right through a big knob on the outside edge of the tire. Not a confidence builder. So I replaced the tube and kept on riding. I finished my ride and when I got home I realized that I had also torn a hole in the side of the tire so I had a 1" tube bubble busting out of the tire. Luckily I made it back to the truck because I only carry one spare with me. Needless to say this tire apparently cannot handle everything, or in my eyes very much. I rarely get flats but two days after I put this tire on I started having problems with tires. Weird. | | Similar Products Used: | Velociraptors, Panaracer - Smoke, Armadillo - Roll X, | | Bike Setup: | Hard Tail Gary Fisher, Mavic Cross Ride wheels, Marzocchi Corsa fork. | | Bottom Line: | This tire was expected to do all that and then some, according to the other reviews on here. Most of my training partners use the CrossMarks so I needed something fast, this tire is fast. It grips everything, even the stuff you wouldn't expect it to, cornering is great but it's not very durable in my opinion. If you ride in rough Texas terrain that has a bit of everything unknown I would not suggest this tire. If you ride a lot of street or trail that is well maintained, flat and smooth with no surprises then this is the tire for you. This is just my opinion, judge for yourself. Maybe I got a defective tire. Maybe it's just me. One bad review out of many shouldn't sway your opinion. Check em out. Price point is going to give me credit for the return so nothing really lost except for a little money on shipping. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$35.00 | | Purchased At: | Pricepoint | | Strengths: | Everything, these tires work great everywhere! | | Weaknesses: | None | | Similar Products Used: | Panaracer Fire XC Pro, Maxxis ADvantage. | | Bike Setup: | 06 C-dale F600 | | Bottom Line: | Only had these tires for a week. I need a good tire for All-around use since I only have my one bike for commuting and riding the trails. These tires are super fast on the road, thought they'd suck in the dirt because of this but not so! They hook-up better than my Panaracers and the Advantage's that I've used in the past. So far this is the best tire I've ever used in 14 yrs of MTB'ing! If I do find a weakness I'll repost. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$38.00 | | Purchased At: | Price Point | | Strengths: | lightweight, grip like crazy | | Weaknesses: | none so far | | Similar Products Used: | Pythons, Small Block 8 | | Bike Setup: | Santa Cruz Blur, Fox RLT, Mavic SL | | Bottom Line: | I needed a tire that would last long and replace my pythons. I so far I love these tires. They are great in muddy and wet conditions and feel good on the rocks. Tinker did well. If you are looking for a tire to ride in the winter time and carry into the summer this would be a great choice. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$60.00 | | Purchased At: | Bike Scene North Yorkshire | | Strengths: | Grip like hell,really fast rolling tyre and gives you huge amounts of confidence when putting your weight on the back of the bike when cornering downhill fast! Mud does not stick to the tread so very good in wet boggy conditions.Not had a puncture and been using the tyre hard over the past month or so every day.Brilliant new tread pettern. | | Weaknesses: | None at all Exeptional tyre | | Similar Products Used: | Bontrager jonet xc ( garbage ) | | Bike Setup: | TREK 2007 TOP END HARDTAIL.Im using this tyre on rear and a conti explorer protection on front end | | Bottom Line: | Really good tyre for wet or dry conditions and still showing no signs of any wear at all.I have hammered this tyre big time and not even any nicks out of the side walls after repeatedly banging them off rocks,roots and cracks in slate paths.I would recomend the tyre to anyone who does XC but with downhill sections.I really cant get over the climbing factor when using the tyre i have gone from walking up loose rocky gravel steep hills to riding them with no bother due to the huge gripping qualities offered on this tyre.The only thing what I done is used a slightly larger tube that the 2.1 because the tyre does look slightly larger than the 2.1 stated???? anyone else agree on the size difference compaired to a different make 2.1 tyre? | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
