Schwalbe Marathon Plus 700

THE 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.

RECYCLING. Also in the SmartGuard, we use a proportion of recycled rubber from old latex products

"ANTI-AGING" SIDE WALL. It now lasts much longer before developing unsightly cracks when subjected to use with too low air pressure.

E-BIKE READY. Due to its great properties Marathon Plus is an ideal choice for E-Bikes (E-25). The main sizes are approved and tested for E-bikes up to 50 km/h.

FLAT-LESS WITH MARATHON PLUS.
Only Marathon Plus tires make your bicycle flat-less. The 5mm thick puncture guard protects even against thumbtacks. www.schwalbtires.com/blog/news/innovation/flat-less/

It is impossible to guarantee that a flat will never happen, but the Marathon Plus has the best defense against everyday tire wreckers such as glass, flints or metal shards. Use a pressure gauge to adjust tire pressures as the common 'thumb check' is insufficient due to the special construction of the Marathon Plus.

NOTE: Tyres which include "Reflex" in the colourway includes a reflective strip on the sidewall.

• Recycling
  • Old products made of natural rubber (such as gloves, tubes...) are crumbed and, over several procedural steps, used as base material in the puncture protection system.
• E-25
  • Tires with the recommendation "E-25" are the perfect choice for all pedelecs with pedal assistance up to 25 km/h. The most important criterion for this recommendation: safety.
