This is a 10 year old thread. *sigh*
When I first saw it I almost headed to walmart!
I wonder now about the legacy of those 32"'s?

There still may be a possibility of finding a 32er under the Kent Branding, I honestly wished it had more popularity though. Holding onto mine the best I canThis is a 10 year old thread. *sigh*

https://kent.bike/products/32-geneisis-super32-front-wheel?_pos=1&_sid=8ea5d69f4&_ss=rI just want the front wheel.
I'm actually 5'10" as well but on the 330+ side, and the Super 32" holds me up pretty well, and yeah i think shipping starts around 20ish or so, I'll be looking to replace my tires (again) in the near futureI’m only 5 foot 10 so that bike looks a little bit tall for me. But thank you for posting the wheel. I’m going to buy one but I will have to scrape all the black paint off of it. Oh well, it’s a bargain price. Although I haven’t checked out the shipping yet.
Ah true, it depends on the seller usually, I'm working on my 32er atm, and had to order a new front tireI ordered one of those awhile back for a neighbor and shipping was free
Woo hoo! I just ordered a wheel, and it’s going to be here in 2 to 6 days.I ordered one of those awhile back for a neighbor and shipping was free
They have several distribution centers, one just happens to be in SC. I think I got it in about 2 daysWoo hoo! I just ordered a wheel, and it’s going to be here in 2 to 6 days.
From South Carolina. 8D
I thought Kent bicycles were being manufactured overseas but evidently that is not true any longer.
In theory. This is a huge company so they may be shipping these from a West Coast warehouse.
FedEx showed up today with the giant wheel, and man it is a giant!

48 spokes. One is slightly bent as if they attached that reflector on the wrong spot and then moved it. I will of course move it into the garbage.
The tire was a little bit on the knobby side. I may have to make it into a high-speed tire.

I’m not sure which bike I’m going to put this and I suspect it’s one that I haven’t built yet.
But when I knew it existed I had to have one. It was kind of like buying a pet rock, so far.
<edit>
I am showing the photo of this tire uninflated. That is how it came. I will probably open it and put some baby powder inside before I inflate it.
This is a pretty rare bird to me. I have to baby it.
Thank you I will check it out.Check out the Nimbus tire options if you aren't happy with the tread on this one.

The Kent tire is 32x2.125 Cexe brand.
That Nimbus is a pretty expensive tire to me at $80. (Of course I’m not used to buying racing tires, which I expect to be much more.) The tube is an extra 35.
With tax and shipping it will cost more than the wheel assembly that I just bought. It’s also 1/8” wider, being 2.25 versus 2.125.
It appears to be made for the unicycle guys.
They often a lighter version for $108.
