I was out on my first ride this weekend and though it was a great time, I came home with a flat. Though the stock tires still have some tread, they look in rough shape with some gashes and cuts.

The flat I have is about a 2 inch slash. I was considering repairing with an inner tube (at a local shop) temporarily. I happened to find two Kenda Bearclaw tires the right size 26x11R12 for sale used. They have never been on a rim – Of course I need to go look at them to verify the condition. The price is certainly right!

Will these be a good stock replacement? Although the reviews I read are mostly decent, some say the tires "run small". Since I have the same size as my stockers, these should work, correct? Any experience with them??
