These tires are Kenda Kross PluI and yes they have a arrow with the word drive that I did not notice until after I had mounted both of them ...backwards.

But now for the happy dance! I belong to a weight loss group and one of the ladies husbands rebuilds bikes as a hobby. At this time he has over 100 bikes. He sent word that if I wanted to learn how to rebuild, from the ground up bikes he would be happy to work with me. To start me out he is giving me a Parks repair manual! First lesson is Sunday.
