I ride with "winter" Kendas with some brutally deep threads and there's no difference in top speed, acceleration or fuel consumption.

I have kendas and I am thinking of switching to michelin boppers(rear) for better mileage. Some clamin better top speed as well(TR). Less rolling resistance & smoother ride. My fatty setup will slow me down with the knobby quad rear tire(track/weekend use only) LOL

From personal experiance, the Michelin Bopper is an amazing tire. They grip, hold, and last better than any other I have seen or used.

Thanks.I was looking at those but they don't have my size.mine is a 100-60-12 the 120-70-12 is a lot taller and have to see how much room there is for the front fender.

I'm currently running Avon Viper Stryke on the Wussi and I'm happy with them overall.
