Is it just me or does the picture look weird. Like maybe the rim is bent or something. I know the picture is on an angle, but still looks weird.
Have no idea about the quality of the tire though, sorry.

Avenir is an o.k company with me, popular upgrade company in the 90's.
Still use their seatposts sometimes.
They probably don't MAKE the tire, just market. Can't tell you much about the Kevlar wall as mine (mtb, diff company) are only a month old- though the are stiffer? nicer than other thin wall mtb tires I've tried.
$30-? Ya.
Looks like may be company IRC. Replacing Discovery Kevlar CyclePro 700x25. ?

Since it is REI and they are cheap I might p/u a pair just to try them out

fun fact: there are no companies in the united states that manufacture bicycle tires.
or, to put it correctly, there are no bicycle tires manufactured in the united states.
