Widely regarded as the definitive flat-less tyre, the Marathon Plus is the number one choice for daily commuters, long-distance tourers, and e-bike riders who demand absolute reliability and uncompromising durability. If you need a tyre you can truly depend on, your search ends here.The cornerstone of this tyre´s incredible resilience is the patented SmartGuard protection belt. This substantial, 5 mm thick layer of highly elastic special rubber provides an unmatched level of defence against everyday road hazards. Shards of glass, flints, and even thumbtacks are actively repelled, drastically reducing the risk of punctures and allowing you to ride with complete peace of mind.

The robust construction and optimized rubber compound deliver outstanding mileage, making it a cost-effective investment for any serious cyclist.

This significantly enhances the tyre´s service life and ensures consistent performance.Perfectly suited for the modern cyclist, this tyre is certified E-Bike Ready (E-50). It has been tested and approved for use on electric bikes with motor assistance up to 50 km/h, providing the safety, stability, and durability required for the higher speeds and increased weight of E-bikes. For enhanced safety during dawn, dusk, and night-time riding, the tyre features a continuous reflective line on the sidewall, ensuring you are more visible to other road users.
