Hello.
I have a problem regarding choosing new tyres for my e-bike. I have narrowed the choice down to 2 options:
Kenda Kraze
Pros (from reviews):
- Looks cool
- Strong rubber (lasts long)
- Cheaper (total: 85€)
Cons:
- Stiff ride
- Slippery when on smallest amount of sand
- Lower profile (makes a gap between fenders and the tyre itself)
Schwalbe Super Moto-X
Pros:
- (Looks like) better in rain and not affected by debris on the road
- Comfier ride
Cons:
- Expensive (total: 115€)
- Worse looks
I can't make up my mind on which ones to buy, because I really like the look of the Kendas, but am worried about their performance in rain and the ride quality.
What would you recommend?
Thanks for all the info, I don't think I'm going to be riding off-road that often, maybe sometimes a gravel road. Many of the roads here have holes and imperfections, so I'd think that the Schwalbes have the advantage there. I was worried about rain because I'd be using them from spring to autumn, in the winter I use knobbies.
I think I'm going to go with the Schwalbes, because upon further research, even though the Kenda's are cheaper (and imo better looking), they have many complaints about being poorly packaged and deforming in transit.
Forgot to mention that I've actually had the Schwalbes before, just wanted to know what the advantages of the Kenda's would be.
