Excellent option if you only ride your mountain bike on paved roads and economical too.

A few months ago I decided to renovate my old '05 Trek 3700 hard tail for winter fitness rides including replacing the OEM Bontrager tires. Since I would only ride this bike about 25 miles per outing x 3 times per week 14mph avg on paved roads, I chose the Kenda Kwick Roller Sport commuter tires based the description - low rolling resistance, good durability, comfortable ride. These tires have exceeded my expectations on the rolling resistance and smooth ride. Too early to tell about the durability factor but no issues so far with about 700 miles on them. In summary, I'm glad I bought them. Decent product at a very reasonable price.

Thank you for your feedback.

I am more than impressed! Great product!

I installed the Kwick Rollers on my electric bike. I like everything about them, and it feels like I have picked up some speed in the bargin! It is a five star purchase in my opinion!!

Thank you for your feedback.

fast and quiet

I switched from a knobby mountain bike tire on my Columbia Trailhead to the Kenda Kwick Roller Sport because I ride on city streets. The knobbies were loud and slow at 65 psi on the asphalt. My new Kwick Rollers are fast and hardly make any noise at a full 80 psi. These are the tires you want on your mountain bike for fast city cruising. I am 6'2 235lbs and they are holding up fantastically.

Thank you for your feedback.

I replaced old combo tires and the lower resistance to roll is amazing on these new tires.

Primarily street, but some off road in the blue ridge mountains.

Thank you for your feedback.

Lives up to its name Kwik Roller

These were the highest psi tires I could find at 26x2.0 at 80-85 psi and at an affordable price. Note in raised rubber the tire states it is 80psi, in a printed on label it states it is 85 psi. No big deal, the tires roll easy and fast, while still being relatively soft. I chose these over 1.0 100psi tires, which I am sure would give even less resistance, but I wanted to retain some softness for potholes and bumps. I use them on a 2001 Stumpjumper that spends time on packed trails pulling a Croozer bike trailer. Picked up a few MPH over the same pressure Specialized knobbies 26x1.95, which have the same pressure. The smooth tires seem to help me keep pace while pulling two kids(50 & 40 lbs). In the end happy with my new tires.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good value tire

I use this tire on my mountain bike replacing my mountain bike tires. Really quiet and they roll very smoothly. I would recommend to anyone looking for a street tire.

This is one quick roller

I put a pair of Kenda Kwick roller tires on my mountain bike after my wife had similar tires slicks mounted by a shop on her bike.

I can't believe the positive difference these make in riding on the paved roads & bike trails. They will take 60 lbs max pressure & I'm able to coast pass my wife when riding. I love these tires. What an increase in speed. What an improvement.

You can't go wrong with a set of Kwick Rollers.

Thank you for your feedback.

Decent tire for the money

For the price it was good. Like all slick tires they will be prone to thorns,glass, and other elements of our great roads. They do look small in width when installed, but after measuring they are 2.0, I am sure depends on the wheel too. I have them installed and some alex DP wheels which are about 17 MM wide. So far I have put on them about 200 miles. No major damage except for a rusted nail that went thru the tire and tube but no visible signs of damage on the tire.

Thank you for your feedback.
