i am ready with my utility LHT with rack and fenders and now my big new tires Schwalbe Marathons which are described below....


When you define performance as "strength, toughness, reliability, longevity" and so on, and you're going out on a long tour on rotten roads with glass and knives and needles strewn about 'em, then you ride Schwalbe Marathons, period.

All that, and they roll fine, too. You won't feel slowed at all. Schwalbe Marathons are as legendary as touring tires get, and the acclaim is earned.

These are for 26" (559 not 584, 650B) wheels. Approximately 2" wide or 50mm if you're more used to metric. Kevlar (folding) bead, yes!

LET THE FUN BEGIN!!!!
