## Description

From the manufacturer Bicycle Tire Specialists Whether city bikes, touring bikes, racing bikes, gravel bikes or mountain bikes, tyres have a more influence on the driving experience than any other. The choice of tyres is crucial on the road grip of the wheel. Furthermore, the tyres affect the level of comfort when rolling and how easy this happens - ideally the tyres combine certain features such as excellent grip, long mileage, excellent rolling properties, minimum weight and puncture safety. Every cyclist perceives all of these features very concretely: the result is an optimal driving experience. Every day Schwalbe dedicates its work to this: to offer customers an ever better driving experience. The perfect tyre vision In the first decades after World War II, bicycle tyres were a simple consumer product whose maximum development had been achieved. Only in the 1980s did they get back on the saddle and Schwalbe began to become a benchmark in bicycle tyres. In the world of cycling, the types of bicycles have increased considerably: mountain bikes, gravel bikes and e-bikes have created demands that tyres must respond. Well aware of this landscape, Schwalbe focused on developing tyres and inner tubes. That's why millions of MTB enthusiasts rely on the quality of Schwalbe MTB tyres Tyre solutions for sports, tourism and everyday use Cycling is an individual form of transport that has only advantages, except for one question: the possible puncture of the tyres. Schwalbe recognises the importance of this problem and offers tyres that can be described as "imperforable" thanks to Tubeless Easy technology and tyre sealant. Schwalbe makes its contribution by continuing to develop high-quality tyres and inner tubes with ingenuity in creation, attractive designs, excellent grip on the road and, of course, puncture protection.

Review: Absolutely top top class and easy to fit. - I had four punctures in only about 120 miles of cycling on my new Trek DS Sport 8.6 with Bontrager tyres. The bike’s great, but the tyres are rubbish, and as I was buying my third pair of replacement inner tubes the sales guy suggested puncture protective tyres. Frankly, mechanical ignoramus that I am, I did not even know such things existed. As usual a visit to desertcart produced a great selection; I always regard price as a give-away on items you want to reply on and so the slightly higher price than most and the large number of 5 stars attracted me to these Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyres. It is in my nature to worry a lot about reviews that express difficulty in performing manual tasks; this is because I am a total half-wit when it comes to doing anything with my hands. I get men to do even the simplest of tasks in the home and any device in need of repair is either simply replaced or sent to a mender. My skills extend to very minor mechanical tasks but this does at least include mending punctures (or rather replacing the inner tube) and I have put new tyres on a bike before as well. I figured there was a You Tube video; I had got string and cable ties if needed; I’d had tyres on and off many times before and, most encouraging of all, and probably the decider for me, many of the reviews plainly thought the difficulties of fitting, expressed by so many, were exaggerated. So I decided to take the risk. To say they were much easier than I expected would be a huge understatement. Unfortunately, I cannot say that the exercise was trouble free but I believe this to be due to my own carelessness and absolutely not any refleciton of the tyre. On my first attempt everything seemed perfect and I had got the tyre on so easily I actually wondered if I had received the same tyre as ordered. However, on inflation, reaching about 80 psi the inner tube burst. Yet another tube up the Swuanee. I am still not entirely clear what caused this but I think I had not checked thoroughly and there was a place where the tyre was not on the rim properly. None weeks later I still have some minor hearing loss from the bang and ringing in my ears and I am awaiting an apppointment at Ear Nose and Throat. This is not a joke or an exaggeration. I am told I may have permanent damage. Be warned! Anyway, undaunted I tried again. The second time around, again dead easy to get the tyre on, but this time I made extra sure that it was sat perfectly in the rim and that the tube was not caught between tyre and rim in any place. I also inflated it gingerly and checked the tyre at about 2 bar before going further. This time all went smoothly; with this practice the other wheel took no time at all. I didn’t need the YouTube video, I didn’t need string or cable ties, I didn’t even need a tyre lever. I was able to get them on with my fingers alone. I just did not find that the tyre came off on one side as you worked in the other as so many seemed to find. I am not showing off. I want people to know that they are much easier than some would have you believe. If I can do it, anyone can do it, trust me on this. They look the part as well and the ride is undoubtedly smoother and even more comfortable than it was before. Nor do they seem to me to be materially heavier than what I had before. I found that I did not need to blow them up to the 80 to 85 psi I used to use previously with my Bontrager tyres. 70 psi seemed perfectly sufficient. So far, after nine weeks as already mentioned, and much use, I have not had a single puncture. To say that I am mightily impressed would be a massive understatement. These tyres really are the business. Absolutely first class.
Review: Quality product at a great price! - Strong durable and stylish. I cycle to work every day and needed something that is robust enough for my 10 mile/day commute. Having tried several different brands and products over the years I've finally found a tyre that not only looks good, but is manufactured to last. When putting the tyres on my wheels I knew immediately that these were of a quality that defies their price. I've had them on for 4 months now and I'm yet to have a puncture so the puncture proof technology is clearly working. I do make sure they are pumped up at all times though to ensure the wear is kept to a minimum. I know I can rely on these tyres on my commute. Speed wise, the thin nature of the tyres and the well designed tread enable me to effortlessly maintain a good speed on the flat. The choice of colour ensures you can get a tyre to match your bike. I would not go back to any other brand now and I would definitely purchase these tyres again.
