The Best BUDGET upgrades for your Gravel Bike

The reviewer discusses the KENDA Original SMALL BLOCK EIGHT Foldable Tire as part of budget upgrades for Jimmy's gravel bike. They mention that these tires were chosen after extensive research due to the lack of gravel-specific 26-inch options.

They also note that the tires were purchased at a very low price from an auction site, making them a budget-friendly option.

AI Summary

Pros

  • Excellent off-road performance, especially in muddy conditions
  • Good grip compared to older, dated tires
  • Available in multiple sizes (26, 27.5, 29 inches)

+3 more

Cons

  • Slightly more rolling resistance on roads compared to smoother gravel tires
  • Not specifically designed for gravel use (more knobbly than typical gravel tires)
