Thanks for this. I was just about to change the tyres on my Carrera Subway from the standard Kenda tyres to something with more grip for the mud in winter. I saw these for £11 each at Halfords and was tempted but not now lol. I had Schwalbe Land Cruisers on my old mountain bike and I only got one puncture in those and that was from a piece of flint. I'll avoid these though. Thanks for helping me save my hard earned 👍

I've got rapid Rob tyres on my bike too and I have had the exact same punctures on my canal rides.

yea its a pain, they would not refund me, So I bought some, Serfas Drifter tyres and guess what, I still get the same ' snake bite' punctures, Its the brambles you know, they have razor sharp thorns that bite even when the plant is dead, :(

Just got into biking and have the same tyres.. 3 hour canal ride and managed to get a puncture from a thorn. Granted the paths were over grown. However new tubes are only £4 from Halfords.

Hi Tom thanks for the vid! Just a heads up that no tyres are puncture resistant, even if they claim to be, a puncture can happen at any moment. I’d recommend trying out self healing inner tubes though, if you haven’t already.

Hi Conor, yes you are right there, punctures are part of our world and we have to cope with them, I've tried self sealing tubes with mixed results, sometimes they hold and sometimes they fold, At the moment I have Serfs Drifters on my bike and they are doing well ( touch wood) up to the present time ,, -♀♀♀♀♀

I tested two 27.5 2.25 RR w/ K-Guard on the center thread part. They cannot stand their own weight of less than 800 grams. I do believe these tires to be dangerous and deceiving, the bead is weak and the sidewalls crease at 0.6mm thick. The compound is too soft for the tread pattern. Very disappointed by how poorly made these tires are, especially for puncture resistance, they're worse than regular tires with no protection. How can they dare to spoof them for having a Kevlar reinforced fiber band inside... no matter how good other tires from this company are, I'll never buy anything anymore from them. Btw: inner tubes from the brand appear to have problem of uniformity on Amazon.it with some having massive swellings. I do believe that to be another proof of the low QC this brand is able to deliver.
