Hello.

I have a problem regarding choosing new tyres for my e-bike. I have narrowed the choice down to 2 options:

13342

Kenda Kraze

Pros (from reviews):

  • Looks cool
  • Strong rubber (lasts long)
  • Cheaper (total: 85€)

Cons:

  • Stiff ride
  • Slippery when on smallest amount of sand
  • Lower profile (makes a gap between fenders and the tyre itself)

13343

Schwalbe Super Moto-X

Pros:

  • (Looks like) better in rain and not affected by debris on the road
  • Comfier ride

Cons:

  • Expensive (total: 115€)
  • Worse looks

I can't make up my mind on which ones to buy, because I really like the look of the Kendas, but am worried about their performance in rain and the ride quality.

What would you recommend?
