Riding the XT from San Jose to Hollister on Saturday upped the priority for me to get more street-worthy tires for it. I want to keep the Kendas for muddy fun, but I’m wearing the knobbies down too quickly being uncomfortable on the roads.
So, this morning, I ordered a pair of Metzeler Sahara 3s:
Now that I’m pretty comfortable with changing the tires myself, I’ll keep the Kendas warm and happy in the garage for trucking the bike to the “hard stuff” and will keep the Saharas on for weekend rides.
