KENDA SMALL BLOCK EIGHT PERFORMS WELL IN TEST (2009-09-21) |

Small Block Eight |

|
The Kenda Small Block Eight was recently tested by the "ROAD
BIKE ACTION MAGAZINE". The tire has great cornering abilities
and smooth rolling.
ROAD BIKE ACTION SAYS:
The Kenda Small Block Eight are designed specifically for fast,
hard pack courses and that is where they excel. The tires have
a rounded tread profile that combined with the small tread blocks
provide solid and predicable handling. The small evenly spaced
knobs create a smooth and fast rolling tire. While the ride
was smooth, what impressed us most were the tires cornering
abilities. The front wheel felt glued to the trail and we were
impressed how easily we could control slide the rear wheel around
corners. On climbs the Small Block Eight hooked up well, although
there was some rear wheel slip during steep out of the saddle
efforts.
If most of your riding is in dry conditions the Small Block
Eight are a good option. If you spend most of you time in the
rain and mud you would be better served by one Kenda’s other
models, such as the Kommando.
