Schwalbe Marathon Bike Tire, Black, Clincher

Great tyres: I ordered the 700 x 35C, which fitted perfectly as a replacement for the slightly larger 700 x 40C tyres that were on my commuting hybrid bike previously. The tyres were from Amazon and arrived well packaged in individual full size boxes (so no issues of deformation due to the tyres being folded/squashed that some reviews mention - full marks to Amazon). Unlike some reviewers I didn't experience any problems fitting the tyres, and simply used Park Tools plastic tyre levers which did the job without any drama. Too early yet to comment on durability or puncture resistance, but given the usual Schwalbe quality I'm not expecting any issues. The tread pattern gives a low rolling resistance on the road due to a central raised bead, whilst on gravel the tread pattern on the rest of the tyre bites giving sufficient grip for light off roading (light gravel cycle tracks and the like). I didn't notice any appreciable increase in rolling resistance due to the puncture protection. The tyres have a reflective strip on the side-wall, which will aid visability at night. I would thoroughly recommend these tyres for commuting/touring and light off roading.

Easy to put onto my wheels albeit installed by a professional bike mechanic.Great tread and look- already tested in rough, bumpy, potholes conditions and so far so good.Marathon family of tyres are the best and in the long run will save you lots of money

Excellent quality tyres. We are leisure cyclists and the anti puncture protection and build quality inspires a great deal of confidence and are perfect for us. However, the tyres are not easy to fit due to the wire inlay. The tyres won't stretch during installation. There are some very good YouTube videos available for reference. I strongly recommend using cable ties or a buckle strap to secure the tyre during installation so that it doesn't keep popping out of the wheel rim. Very happy with our purchase though.

I bought a pair of 700Cx35mm to replace my very old 32mm mismatched tyres. I had looked at the Marathon Plus but I have read that they give a very harsh ride (and they're almost £10 more each). If I'd given it more thought I would probably have gone up to 700Cx38 but I'm happy with them. My previous Schwalbe Marathon tyres lasted for ages so I hope these do. Only negative point is they're really tight on the rims making them hard to put on so I hope I don't get too many punctures.

Excellent tyre, I’ve used the 20” by 1.5 “ and it fitted my Dagon folding bike fitted a treat. Very smooth ride getting another for my back wheel. Highly recommend.

I've been using these Marathon tyres for years, and typically upgrade any new bike to them within the first months of owning it. Every pair I've bought has been good quality, fitted the bike well, and lasted for years. They're a bit stiff and tricky to install the first time, but I figure that just means they're a good positive fit for the rims.I'm not an ultra-serious cyclist so I won't comment on weight or rolling resistance. All I know is that I get fewer punctures when I use them, which means more time riding and less time repairing the bike.

Good

These are really excellent tyres. Like most cyclists...i am fed up with punctures and cheap tyres so i spent a bit extra to get these and give them a try. They are solid and durable and pretty fast too. i noticed a definite improvement in speed after fitting these on. i have also been off road with these and although it was a very bumpy ride, they held up well and had no problems with the rough offroad riding through mud, puddles, stones and general debris and trye killing terrain. I've cycled over abandoned screws on the road with these and not had a puncture. yes, they're a bit heavy and they were really difficult and time consuming to install due to the nature of the robust inner lining and wiring but i have peace of mind about punctures now. No tyre is 100% puncture proof but these are better than anything else i've tried...including Continental gatorskins which are overrated and overpriced in my opinion. I really recommend these and also the wider thicker mountain bike version on schwalbe make too. a good investment for all regular cyclists.

16inスポーツサイクル（注文生産）に使用。購入時に装着されていたタイヤがパンクしてしまい、ソリッドタイプのノーパンクタイヤ（チューブ）を試しましたが、走行感が全く変わってしまい（加速しない/惰性が続かないetc）使いものにならなくなってしまったので、パンク耐性タイヤで名の通っている本品を試しました。本品は、加速感/惰性の伸びetcもオリジナルタイヤに遜色無く、コーナリング時の感覚が少し違う程度でした。使い始めて数ヶ月で、耐久性のテストはこれからですが、実績の有るタイヤなので、安心感はあります。

La qualità del copertone sembra buona, devo dire che, almeno per quanto mi riguarda, ho fatto un po' di fatica a montarlo sulla bicicletta. Mi sembra che sia in vendita anche la coppia degli stessi copertoni che permetterebbe di risparmiare un po' su ogni singolo pezzo.

通勤用のクロスバイクに装着しています。片道約2kmを6～7年ほど、ほぼ毎日乗りましたがノントラブルでした。通勤時のパンクは致命的ですので、それが無かったのはこのタイヤのおかげだと思っています。その安心感から今回リピート購入しました。タイヤ自体は相当タフなのでまだまだ使えそうではありましたが、5年くらいで側面や反射塗料等に「くたびれ感」が出て、最近タイヤ自体も若干膨らんできた感じがしましたので交換しました。パンクに強い反面やや重くて硬いので装着には少々苦労しますが、たった一度の苦労ですからそれは我慢。再び快適な走行感となり満足しています。

Have used these in several vintage Raleigh cycles over the years. Not only do they closely match the original Dunlop’s thin whitewall, they are a superior quality tire with puncture protection and last for years with proper care. Invest in them.

子どもを乗せる電動自転車ブリヂストンビッケの交換タイヤとして使用。ブリヂストンの電動自転車は前輪ホイールにモーターがあるため、前輪の摩耗が早いです。（前後に子どもを乗せる事もあり重量負荷も高い）。そのため、24×1.75サイズで選べる選択肢の中では信頼性の高いこちらを選びました。これまで使用していたタイヤと比べて明らかに剛性高く、エアボリュームもあり乗り心地が良くなりました。また、モーター駆動のグリップもしっかりと路面に伝えている感覚があり、明らかに速くなりました。トータルで見た時のライフサイクルでもコスパ良いのではと思います。
