This is a great gum wall tire with a great ride. Love the high pressure, makes for a smooth low resistance ride. This is a pavement riding bike used for recreational riding.
Review by PilotFishBob
Good inexpensive tire. Only beef really is with aesthetics - the gumwall is not even around the sides, looks like it's a bit off center on the ones I've purchased. But I'm anal, and not many people are going to pay much attention to that - it's a minor issue.

Only have about 150 miles on tires as of this review but can't be happier so far. Tires look great on Schwinn World Sport. Couldn't beat the price and shipping was fast. I would highly recommend these tires for any 27 road bike

These tires went on my first rebuild project, a 25-30 year old steel frame road bike for my 12 year old son. (A beginning cyclist) these are perfect for functionality and value. A good tire for the purpose

Great, old school tire at an unbeatable price. Bought a set for a vintage Motobecane 12 speed I picked up on the cheap at a thrift store, the tires were rotten and needed replacing.
It was tougher getting the old tires off than it was putting the k35's on. They popped into place with little effort. Once finished, (don't forget the tubes and rimstrips) the result is sweet. The old French bike looks so good with them on and is ready to hit the road. Highly recommended!

We are a bicycle mission organization and many bicycle come with dry-rot in the tires. The reasonable cost of this tire allows us to make use of the bike for those in financial need.

Review by J. Hall
I was a bit put off by these tires when I first mounted them because they did not appear to be seating evenly. I suspected that they might be slightly larger in diameter than spec. However, by deflating and re-inflating them several times I was able to mount them in a satisfactory manner. Once mounted, they have given me no trouble. I have about 375 miles on them at present - all on paved surfaces thus far. Their somewhat triangular profile appears to work well to reduce rolling resistance while the large cross-section provides the shock absorption and grip in the slippery stuff that you'd expect from a 27x1.25 tire.

Ive only had these tires on for about a month now, but they seem to wear great. I notice 90 psi is recommended, but that ride was a tad too bumpy for me, 80 psi seems about right. These tires are a steal for the price and the shippping was quick. Definitely recommend the K35s for commuters!

I am a casual rider that puts about 800-1000 miles a year on my bike. The roads that I ride on are country roads that are rough and full of pot holes. These tires hold up just fine under these conditions.

If you need a high quality replacement for your classic Schwinn - look no further. Great looks, fit and ride with a price that will not break the bank!
Review by geoffhazel
I was fixing up an older 12 speed bike with decayed tires, and these did the trick. Looks just like it would have back in 1980 now. The one thing I'm not crazy about (and you can see it in the picture) is the mold fingers of little rubber on the tread and sides. They can be pulled off, it's just annoying and time consuming. More expensive tires don't have those.
But that's a quibble, for retro bike rehabbing, these are great.

This is my go-to tire on vintage road bike restorations with 27x 1 1/4" wheels. The tires, while not super lightweight, are very rugged and of excellent and uniform quality.

Good price for a hard to find item. Previously purchased, not sure of overall durability as it did not last particularly long mileage wise.
