In run kenda K35 tires (but not gumwall) and they are ok budget tires. They work well but are not especially light, grippy or puncture-resistant.
Pros: ok budget tires, work well
Cons: not light, not grippy
Nevegal is a much better choice for cornering than ardent. I've done nevegal front/ardent rear before, but I really would be reluctant to push cornering speed on an ardent up front.
Pros: better choice for cornering
I had those on my 29er too. Yeah they're fast and awesome in perfect conditions.m but they blow at everything else. Hated them during a climb on loose stuff.
Pros: fast in perfect conditions
Cons: blow at everything else
My Scout came from the factory Kenda tires. I am wholly not impressed with them, after 9,000 km they are just starting to scrub in for turning grip. I am also under the understanding that these factory tires are only good for 10,000km, so I will be changing none the less.
The addition of any moisture to the rear wheel, including from dew or fog reduces grip friction into the realm of nonexistence making for a disconcerting riding experience.
Cons: poor grip in moisture
Mileage: 9000 km
I don't know if anyone has had the same experience with the 270, but my Kenda 280s have been awful on wet roads. Like riding on ice... Truly scary. I guess because the rubber compound is cheap. May not be an issue if you live in a dry climate.
Cons: awful on wet roads
I have them on my 250l and they work great, they get the job done off road while still providing a lot of grip on road. The tire compound is quite soft which helps on road.
Pros: good grip on road
Cons: soft tire compound
I had Kenda Kountachs and they served me well, only really got pinch flats ever and that was 100% my fault.
Pros: served me well
Cons: pinch flats
Nothing wrong with Kendas. They get the job done.
Pros: gets the job done
Talk to Daelen at MAP. He can set you up with Kenda Tires at a discount. With a KA you should make it through multiple events on one set of Kendas.
Pros: good for multiple events
Vehicle:
Nissan Skyline
