Experience Unmatched Traction and Durability with the Kenda Hellkat 27.5 x 2.6 Tubeless Folding Mountain Bike Tire

Elevate your mountain biking performance with the Kenda Hellkat Tire, designed specifically for gravity, enduro, and trail riders seeking superior grip and reliability across diverse terrains. Crafted with premium materials and innovative technology, this tire delivers exceptional handling, puncture resistance, and weight savings, ensuring you conquer every trail with confidence.

Materials & Construction:

Built with a high-tpi (120) casing for increased durability and flexibility, the Kenda Hellkat features an Advanced Trail Casing (ATC) that combines lightweight design with increased suppleness. The tire incorporates K-Armor technology-a robust belt beneath the tread and SCT layer on the sidewalls- providing enhanced puncture resistance, pinch flat protection, and cut resistance without sacrificing weight or performance. The folding bead ensures easy installation and excellent ride quality on tubeless-ready rims.

Performance & Engineering:

Optimized for aggressive trail riding, the Hellkat's tread pattern balances traction, maneuverability, and rolling speed across a variety of conditions. Its specialized knob design provides confident cornering and braking grip, while the tubeless compatibility allows for lower pressures, improving traction and reducing the risk of flats. The tire's 66mm width and 27.5-inch diameter make it versatile for aggressive enduro and all-mountain applications.

Components & Technology:

Featuring a tubeless-ready clincher design, the Kenda Hellkat reduces weight and minimizes setup time while maximizing puncture resistance. The tire is rated for up to 50 PSI, ensuring optimal inflation for high-performance riding. The combination of SCT sidewall reinforcement and a K-Armor belt offers added protection against trail debris and sharp objects-making it a reliable choice for challenging terrains.

Style & Use Case:

Designed in a sleek black finish, the Hellkat exudes a rugged, aggressive aesthetic perfect for riders who push their limits. Whether used as a front or rear tire, it excels in enduro, trail, and gravity biking scenarios. Its versatile tread pattern adapts seamlessly from technical descents to fast, flowy sections, making it ideal for riders seeking a confident, all-around mountain bike tire.

Der Reifen hält über 4500km im Gelände Asphalt Schotter gute Seitenführung;

It’s hard finding a good tubeless tire for my old 26er. These fit the Bill I wanted something fast rolling and easy to climb with. I have taken them down some gnarly rock gardens with no issues.

The tires state min pressure 30 psi but they’re not confidence inspiring on loose over hard. I lowered my pressures to 22F/25R and they did much better.

Over all I would go with something more aggressive for the front but these work out great for long days of climbing.;

Great grip. Nice sidewall support for the casing weight. Predictable transition to side knobs. Nicely damp without being dead. I'm running tubless 27.5in on a 28mm rim front only right now but I may try it on the rear when rains come this fall. Western Washington state.;
