Over the past 2-3 years, I've gone through close to 30 of these tubes. Mainly because I carry spares and don't need them myself but give them to others on the roadside. I use the 60mm presta valve tubes paired with 700x23 Specialized All-Condition Armadillo Elite tires and the last 10 times I've used tubes is because I got a new wheelset. I can't remember when my last flat was. I do always pump up to 125psi before I leave my apartment. There's no reason to spend $6-12 per tube for a name brand. Besides, Kenda is itself a brand name. I won't buy other tubes.
When I began cycling 8 years ago, I got sucked into the hype of light racing tubes. But as a non-racer, wknd warrior I realized that for me it was more important to stock myself w reliable, good value tubes than go after the tiny gains of the racing tubes but at a higher cost and more punctures.
Over the years, I've purchased many Kenda tubes of various of width and valve lengths for my 4 bikes and I don't recall any negative experience.
So if you're a wknd. warrior pounding out the miles and don't care about nano second gain then get the Kendas w a peace of mind.
Excellent tubes at a great price.
they are a good bargain when looking for good quality tubes at a discount price.
Great tubes. I installed them and no problems with them.
I really like Kenda tubes. They are not expensive, relatively thick, and do the job well. I always get the smooth valve because they look way more pro than the standard threaded tube.
I like these tubes they work very well and are inexpensive.
Installed wth a Continental Gatorskin 700c Road Tire and have about 400 miles on tiretube combinations. Working as expected.
I like all the valve options and performs well.
work great
I have 700c 25 road tire and I can find just the right tube size for my tire so the tube is not stretched too much when inflated.
I've been using these tubes for years. They are medium weight so resist flats. I stock up when they are on sale.
They're tubes.
I've used both the Kenda and Michelin smooth presta valve tubes and the Kenda's are just as durable but a little lighter than the Michelins. If you're looking for a smooth valve tube this is a good choice although a little pricey.
I stocked up on these tube when they were on sale. I am extremely satisfied with both the quality and the price of these tube.
All I can say , no Issues very dependable inter tube. I have'n have any issues.
I've used these Kenda tubes in the past, and I've never had any problems with them. Heck, their inner tubes.
Cheap tubes for commuting
Bought in bulk because they are reliable and if you ride frequently, you know you will use them!
Tube is my primary and I keep a back-up with me when I ride. Haven't come across a reason not to like the Kenda tube. And with a great too!
I've used the Kenda 700c standard weight tubes as a training tube for years. These are sturdy and not subject to mysterious flats. Would highly recommend.
