Peter Treadway on YouTubeabout 2 years ago
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. The tires are described as slightly more knobbly than average gravel tires, providing excellent off-road performance but with slightly more rolling resistance on roads. The reviewer highlights their performance in muddy conditions, where they outperformed other tires by providing better traction. 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)

Review: 8/10
Details: Very happy with this item. Would give it a 10/10 but I don't have a real Paul Comp seat post to compare it to, so I have to assume it could have small differences. Installation was easy (no different than any other seat post) and does what it's expected to do.

Review: 8/10
Details: I haven't installed it yet, but I've owned genuine Thomson seat posts in the past and this one looks identical to them. It didn't come with a Thomson bag, which is why I've knocked some points off. Otherwise, though, this looks to be a solid replica with no issues.
