XC casing

Race optimized casing offers high sidewall protection, a fast rolling compound and low weight.

Single Compound

Kenda's single tread compound construction uses the same compound over the whole tread of the tire. The characteristics of the compound itself vary between each category - a commuter tire's compound will be more durable than a mountain bike compound - or even within the category as Kenda adapts the compound to each tire. A mountain bike tire that is intended to perform well in wet conditions will have a different compound than a tire that is meant to excel in dry conditions. That way you can also be sure to get a tire with a compound that was fine-tuned for that particular tire.
