The Story
Marathons are probably the most well known bike touring tyre around - stop anyone bike touring anywhere in the world and they'll be running Schwalbe Marathons in some shape or form. Why? They offer level 5 GreenGuard puncture protection, they're hard wearing with their Endurance Compound and they won't break the bank, enabling you to keep going and going. The “Anti-Aging” sidewall can withstand the typical cracking that results from overloading due to insufficient inflation pressure for much longer. They're not the quickest tyres on the market, but if you're after a reliable commuter tyre or you're planning to ride through the winter or travel a long way, then the Marathon should be top of your list.
This variant has a reflective side wall for enhanced side visibility for town-riding, and suitable for e-bike use.
Features:
- Wired tyre
- Endurance Compound
- Reflective side wall
- TwinSkin sidewall
- E-bike use for speeds up to 25/50kph (depending on the model)
- Weight: 520g
