Firstly, dont use 'text writing' on here, it will most likely get you blocked...


Any way.. They both have a massive range, so what ones are you trying to compare?

Sorry, didnt see that end bit... unless you just added it on! Razz

It depends what ever you perfer to be honest. I would rather the holy's, but then again I havnt tryed a set of k-rads.

Hope this helps!

Kendas seem to be lighter for Dirt and Street. The Holy Rollers compared to the K-Rads, the K-Rads a lighter, and then Kiniptions to say, Hookworms, Kiniptions are a shit load lighter. For Dirt and Street go Kenda. The Holy Rollers are good if all you do is DJ thought. For Freeride and Downhill, I hear that Maxxis offers alot better stuff, I have no clue about weight though.

I also think Holy Rollers are over rated, but I can't really say anything bacause I have them myself, aha.

well i personally run maxxis's because thehy are lighter and the wall of the tyre is much stronger than alot of other tyres also kenda are really very heavy and dont grip aswell i used to have them but had to switch to MAXXIS!XD

I've run both the Kenda Blue Groove and Nevegal as well as the Maxxis Minion. The Maxxis is a much better tire in almost every aspect (grip, flat resistance, life)
