My 700c Clem came with Kenda Kwick-Nines and they're a great tire. Maybe they're so much better than the other Kendas, or maybe my opinion is worthless, but the only definite I've got to add here is I wish they'd post some photos of the giant Clem L's that just came in. I was all set to get one but was able to snag one of the Will's Monster Mixte (step-through!) frames. Anyways, Doug, you're going to love that Clem. Set some 2.35 Schwalbe G-ones up tubeless on it and never look back... -Kai BK NY
