Forget about carrying a patch kit for your daily commute, this is the ultimate fit-and-forget solution for worry-free riding.The core of this tyre´s exceptional resilience lies in its patented SmartGuard protection belt. This substantial protective layer offers an unrivaled level of defense against punctures from all common sharp objects, earning it a Very High puncture protection rating. While it delivers fortress-like security, this Performance Line model doesn´t sacrifice efficiency. It features a significantly improved rolling resistance, ensuring a surprisingly smooth, fast, and effortless ride. This makes it an ideal choice not only for conventional city bikes but also for e-bikes, where efficiency directly translates to extended battery range.Durability is engineered into every aspect of the Marathon Plus. The innovative anti-aging sidewall construction is specifically designed to withstand the typical cracking that results from being ridden with low air pressure for extended periods, drastically increasing the tyre´s service life. For enhanced safety during early morning commutes, late-night rides, or in low-light conditions, the tyre is equipped with highly effective reflective sidewall stripes (Reflex). This feature dramatically increases your visibility to other road users, making you stand out in traffic and at intersections. As a rigid, clincher-type tyre, it ensures a secure and firm fit on the rim, providing stable and predictable handling for all your urban adventures. Perfect for city bikes, converted mountain bikes, and touring rigs using the 26´´ wheel size, the SCHWALBE Marathon Plus is the definitive choice for riders who demand maximum dependability.---Technical Details and Specifications:Marathon Plus Performance SmartGuard 26´´ x 37 Tyre.* Size: 26´´ / 37* ETRTO: 37-590 / 37-559* Wheel Size: 26´´- 650C* Tyre Width: 1.4 inches* Type: Clincher* Bead: Rigid* Primary Usage: Urban Cycling, City, Touring* Model: SCHWALBE Tires ´´Marathon Plus´´ HS 440* Casing: 67 EPI* Puncture Protection: SmartGuard (Very High)* Colour: Black / Reflex* Weight: approx. 850 g* Category: Wheels and tyres* Subcategory: Tires
