Schwalbe Type: Uni Marathon Plus Rigid Bicycle Tyres

These are among best tires you can get for commuters, fitness/leisure cyclists etc. they can last for years, thousands of miles and punctures will be very rare. They are heavy but good quality and the cost is covered by not having to change tires, inner tubes etc... Have been using them for years.

I bought a set a while back and never had an issue with them, so got this set for my son. Good wearing and great puncture resistance.

Looks a great design of tyre, fitted yesterday and hopefully will be the end of getting punctures. Very quick turnaround by supplier....thank you

Very good

I bought the Marathon Plus because last summer I had at least four flat tires during rides. Since putting the Marathon Plus tires on, I've ridden 300 miles (a few of those rides on the same trail that gave me multiple flats last year), and so far so good - not a single flat. This morning I rode in the "Tour de Belt" event around Harrisburg, PA, and when I got back to my car I discovered the pin (or whatever it is) pictured with this review embedded in my back tire. It was in there so deep that it broke into two pieces as I tried to pull it out. The pointy end of the little hooked piece was at least half-way into the tire. I got it out and, as far as I can tell, the tire's fine. The tube was undamaged. I should mention that those who say these tires are hard to get onto the rim aren't kidding. I was expecting it to be difficult, and it was even worse than I was expecting. Took quite a bit of struggling. But if I can get them onto a rim, probably anyone can. Also, these tires are noticeably thinner and harder than my previous tires, so the ride has gotten a good bit rougher and it took me a while to adjust going around curves, especially in gravel. But considering that the tire survived being stuck with that pin that would have easily flatted my previous tires, I can live with a slightly rougher ride.

Les pistes cyclables de la banlieue parisienne ne sont pas aussi saine qu'on pourrait le penser. Avec ces pneus, plus de risque. Certes les crevaisons ne sont pas exclues, mais elles sont beaucoup, beaucoup plus rares. Si vous gonflez en respectant les normes du fabriquant, le risque de crevaison est quasi nul. Je les gonfles toujours au maximum de la pression préconisée. Le montage est simple et rapide, sans aucune difficulté. Attention à respecter le sens de rotation, indiqué sur le flan du pneu. Avec quelques dix vélos que j'ai à la maison, j'ai une certaine petite expérience. Le remplacement des pneus d'origines, bien que loin d'être usés, était une nécessité pour moi. J'en avais assez de savoir galérer ma femme avec son vélo à assistance électrique. Ces vélos sont plus lourds que les vélos traditionnels, et lors d'une crevaison vous êtes content dès lors que vous devez marcher à coté de votre vélo. Acheté en juillet 2022, aucune crevaison au 31/10/2024. Ce fabricant n'a plus rien à prouver concernant ces pneus et notamment cette référence. Vous pouvez acheter les yeux fermés.

a thorn proof 26x 1 3/8 tube fit well should be bullet proof,,,get the high pressure rim tape too this tire is rated 60-100 psi

Exactly as expected, high quality, rolls well, great product.

E il terzo copertone che acquisto di questa marca e mi trovo molto soddisfatto della qualita del prodotto, sto usando da circa un anno i due precedentemente acquistati e non ho nessuna lamentela da fare. Preciso solo queste cose: sono copertoni rigidi e di peso maggiore a causa del rinforzo antiforatura. il materiale e di buona qualità e tengono in maniera ottima la strada, sulla mia bici da passeggio sono perfetti. Unico neo devo segnalare che li spediscono piegati. L'altro venditore me li aveva spediti in scatoloni di adeguate dimensioni.
