not the best probably but I'm not intending to be pushing the bike that much for now and they're meant to have ok adhesion and a pretty good lifespan.. i will update one that a few months into use.
has anybody else used these?

Never ran them but sure they'll be fine. TBH 90% of people wouldn't be able to outride the cheapest of tyres in normal road use!! They just think they can!!

the bike currency is a horror regarding safety around steering, suspension, tyres, brakes etc and I'm in process of getting this all sorted to the best of my financial ability.
thats why i checked out the reviews and they seemed like a good option (although on the cheaper end of good tyres) for someone thats not using the bike for full on sports use.
