Kendra Kontact vs. Odyssey Aitken
Wussup?! I have a question about Kendra Kontact vs. Odyssey Aitken tires.
Yes, I'm a noob...for that I apologize if this is a 'repeat question' as I tried to search but found no supporting data as to whether either tire is of better quality. So thats basically it....any opinions as to which is a better overall quality tire or are they pretty fair and square?
I will be riding all paved street(for the most part)and vert. Any opinions or help would be greatly appreciated.

Ok, that's kinda what I thought. I was doing some homework on Haro's website cause there's nothing used thats selling in my area unless I wanna a Huffy and it sounds like the Mongeese are lame ducks....according to the thread(which was actually quite informational AND entertaining). So I guess I'm looking at a 350.2 which is 2.25lbs over what I wanted but really don't wanna have to spend another $200 for my 1st bike to lose 2lbs.
I don't know...for a new rider is the 2 extra pounds gonna make that big of a difference?

You'll get used to the weight. Just replace parts as they break, and your bike will start getting lighter. Its actually better to start heavy, because then you learn better control and build strength.
