Just had delivered some Kenda Blue Groove's but i was expecting UST from Chain Reaction. Question is has any body used standard Kenda Tyres with Stans no tubes? They have discontinued the UST version so sent me the standard version! and charged me for the UST still..
Will i get a credit for next order if i complain?

i've got a regular folding blue groove/nevegal combo on dt 5.1 with dt tubeless kit/stans milk and no problems at all.

Will give them a go tomorrow then.I have Nevegal UST for the back and Blue Groove DTC for the front. It will be interesting to see how they compare!

I'm using an excavator with Stans, no problems yet though I wouldn't be too surprised if I do hit problems in a few months. But the tyre'll almost be dead by then anyway. Kenda don't approve their UST tyres for use with sealant either, which is... interesting.

I've been running blue groove/nevegals UST versions for the last couple of months, never again, no grip, never done so many repairs to a UST tyre.
Bit of a shame, used to love the stick-e kinetics, tubed version.
They're coming off tomorrow, going on is some 2.4 conti queens, with the soft compound, I'll give them a go at Whinlatter over the weekend, the ultimate test for a grippy tyre ๐Ÿ˜‰

Ran 2.2 rub queens for months now very good tyre but not so good in filthy conditions so trying a smaller tyre for winter!

Send them back, they're not what you ordered, they should (by law) refund your postage
