GRAVEL CASING TECHNOLOGY
Versatile casing with great all-round protection. 50% lighter than traditional trail puncture breakers. Tubeless ready. Intended use: All-around Cx and gravel riding
These tires are great on trails and pavement. Kenda is becoming my go to tire for gravel and mtb bikes
Threw a 40mm pair on my wife's commuter because she wanted to try gravel riding. She loved the grip and extra plushness compared to her normal 32mm panaracers.
I pump them up to 50psi for pavement riding and they are smooth, fast and efficient. Air them down to 38psi for the gravel in my area and they exceed my expectations again. Great tire for all around usage. This is also my first experience with Kenda tires and won’t be my last.
Very happy
I had an older version of the Flintridge, but they were aging so I bought the Pro GCT version. A big upgrade, with good puncture protection and 120 tpi casing. I used these with tubes on an '80s steel sports tourer restomod, for use as an all-road / gravel bike. The tires roll very well on pavement even at the moderate pressures used off-road, and they are surprisingly capable on more technical terrain. I managed rocky and rooty singletrack without any punctures, and they are surprisingly grippy in sand. Hard to imagine anything better for the price, a good compromise between performance and robustness. Would definitely recommend.
