Nice soft tires with loads of grip.
Hey, just Christmas many years ago, nothing like a new bike!
I already have a pair of Kenda Nevegal tires in 26x2.1 in house that I bought used on ebay. They look to be little used. I'm looking forward to giving it a ride this coming week when I get a new chain. Then I'll figure out what else needs to be done. I used to have a $100 limit on what I considered "under the radar" but now that I've retired I've lowered that considerably. Now I try to keep things under $25 per item. The pair of tires was $20, but then shipping. But if I bought new tires the starting point seemed to be about $25/each and up, and these are like $38/each.
