Tyre reviews Kenda K280. Страница 1 25

I've been searching and selecting tires for a light enduro bike for a long time. Instead of spikes, I wanted something more universal because I spend most of my time riding on asphalt and I don't like mud.
I was choosing between SHINKO e700 and Kenda K280
I bought Kenda because it was on sale.
So, after installation, I rode the same route: asphalt, dirt, a little mud, a lot of wet fallen leaves, rocky stones, and tree roots. For the first 20 minutes, I thought I was screwed. But no, I rode just like before, only with a bit more nervous tension from anticipation.
In the end, I recommend if you're a casual enduro rider and you don't aim to kill yourself and your bike.

I was looking for universal tires for tour-enduro, and it seems I found them. They are not for deep mud, but on wet dirt they are quite confident. Leaves, grass - okay. Asphalt - good. On sand, if you accelerate too much, it loses traction or digs in the rear. It's a bit noisy, but for this tread pattern that's to be expected. How it is on ice and snow, I don't know, it's not for that.

Fast wear, decent grip, except for mud and perhaps loose sand.
Pros - predictability, not too loud.
Normal option for light use.

Clear organization and good tire on the motorcycle walks great, soft, grip and passability are great

For asphalt and dirt fifty-fifty I think is normal, corresponds to the size.

Assembled a set of dual-sport tires. Interesting thing Kenda K280 for the front nowhere to be found, and Kingtyre K60 rear with a width of 120 does not exist. So I had to mix different ones.
On asphalt, there will be no noise and vibration, grip like a semi-slick. According to reviews, on dirt, it does not slip like asphalt. Just what you need for tourist use - an honest compromise dual sport 50/50.

Excellent all-season tires! I've been using them for several years. The tread pattern allows me to confidently drive on both asphalt and off-road.

Haven't installed them yet, curious to see how they'll perform on wet asphalt

The tire is completely unsuitable for tubeless, the entire side is covered in tiny holes right in the middle of the sidewall, as if it was punctured with a needle from a syringe. Wear on asphalt is very rapid, I think the total mileage on it will not exceed 4-4.5 thousand km. I drive 70% on asphalt and 30% on dirt. Traction on dry surfaces is good everywhere, but in mud it's absolutely NO. It gets clogged in an instant and doesn't self-clean. Compared to the Mitas E-07, it's like heaven and earth, Mitas rules!
