Product Description

THE NEW FLAT-LESS TIRE.

Schwalbe’s best selling model. The most puncture resistant pneumatic tire there is. In addition to the superior puncture protection it features many inner values:

Rolling resistance. The patented, 5 mm thick SmartGuard layer, when compared to all generic products, has a significant advantage in rolling resistance.

Anti-aging side wall. It now lasts much longer before developing unsightly cracks when subjected to use with too low air pressure.

Level 6 SmartGuard

Most effective protection belt available for bicycle tires. A substantial, 5 mm thick layer of flexible, special india rubber offers durable protection. Works also for objects that lodge in the tread. Even a thumbtack won't harm it.

E-Bike Ready 25

In standard pedelecs that have motor assist up to 25 km/h, there is no legal requirement for a special tire. But even with these bikes, loads and average speeds are higher than in regular bikes, therefore we recommend only certain tires as "E-Bike Ready 25".

Performance Line

Excellent quality for intensive use.
These are the best value for money tires.

Good winter tyre

by Roy G on 03/10/2017

Did a 10 mile test before and after fitting and hardly any difference in speed or ride. Tricky to fit, but when worked out how on the front no problem on the back.

Zero flats in two years!

by Jamie S on 02/05/2016

Using these tires over three years on two different hybrid bikes in Cambridge with zero flats! My occasional use MTB has Specialized Armadillo Hemisphere tires and usually suffers a flat within two weeks on the same route to work yet some how I have never had a flat with these. Highly recommended and will be on my commuting bike until they stop making them! I am a hefty rider that rides hard on my 5 mile commute so these definitely get some abuse but just keep going!

durable long lasting puncture proof tyre

by Liam P on 20/09/2015

This is my second set of these and my past ones lasted me about seven housand miles, before needing replacing. Before I had these I had too many punctures to count but no more, a great tyre worth spending a bit more. Really good price from Tred as well.

Tyres that wont let you down!

by Paul D on 06/09/2015

Before I had these tyres I tried a few different makes and kept getting punctures every month. Since using The Marathon Plus I have been puncture free for 6 months! Slightly heavier, slightly more expensive than standard tyres, but in the long run I've saved loads. They also feel very grippy and I'm confident riding with them in any weather.

Schwalbe Road Tyre Guide

With puncture protection, grippy rubber compounds and tread patterns designed for different surfaces Schwalbe road bike tyres are packed full of technology. See the range of technologies that give their road bike tyres a performance edge.
Protection

Rubber Compounds

Tyre Types
Protection

Smartguard

Protection Level 7 – Smartguard offers the highest level of puncture protection. A 5mm thick layer of special Indian rubber sits under the tread offering durable protection against objects penetrating through the tread. The Indian rubber layer is highly elastic for better handling.

Double Defence Raceguard

Protection Level 6 – combining a double layer of nylon under the tread with snakeskin sidewall protection. This lightweight protection is designed for racing.

V-Guard

Protection Level 5 – Using an extremely resistant cut layer, V-Guard tyres offer a high level of puncture resistance.

Raceguard

Protection Level 4 – A double layer of Nylon fabric under the tread offers good protection for light, sporty tyres.

K-Guard

Protection Level 3 – A natural rubber layer, reinforced with Kevlar fibres under the tread offers the minimum standard for puncture protection in Schwalbe tyres.

SnakeSkin

Sidewall Protection – SnakeSkin is a monofilament fabric on the sidewall of the tyre which provides the best cut protection for sidewalls.

Rubber Compounds

Triple Compound

Triple compound tyres have different compounds in as the base, centre and shoulder sections of the tyre. Softer shoulder compounds give you more cornering grip, while harder center compounds offer improved durability and lower rolling resistance.
