RadRover5 tire swap,

From: factory Kenda Juggernauts 26 x 4.0
To: Vee Tire 26x3.5 Speedster Fat Tire 90-559 Folding Bead Silica Compound 120 TPI

INSTALL & OPINION.

To say I am happy would be an understatement, I am ecstatic. These tires are freaking perfect, virtually ZERO noise, silky smooth handling, pleasant cornering & and they ROLL. 30 psi is just right.

Install was a breeze, took less than an hour. Old Kenda Juggernaut tires came off easily new ones went on with no problems either. I would rate this a 4 on a 10 scale in difficulty.

Turns this bike into a Cadillac! A total Sedan DeVille.

No durability info yet but I foresee no problems there. I hear they wear like tank treads.

i just put these on my rad rover 6 plus a couple days ago as well. its like night and day. i use so much less battery and accelerate so much faster.

Where you get the tires from? I may get them when my tires wear out.

a month later, how are you digging the tires?

Any experience with them on gravel and or off-pavement?

Still loving the Speedster?s. They really have increased the enjoyment I get from my Rover, big time.
