    Which Marathons did you guys use? I am at the Schwalbe website and there're so many types of Marathons.

    At the moment, I have the Schwalbe Kojak with 26x1.35 in front and 26x2.0 in the back (so I can load up my pannier with grocery).

    In the winter, which is probably when it starts to snow/ slush around late Dec., I will have Panaracer XC Pro 26x2.0. Though I think I want something lighter and faster this winter. Changing from slicks to these tires, you can really feel the differences. They really drag.
