Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Schwalbe Marathon HS 420 Touring Bike Tire: 3mm Puncture Protection, Reflective Sidewall - City, Urban & Hybrid Bicycles by David Robinson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best bicycle tires I have ever used.

Item received: Marathon HS420 B/B+RT (Item No.: 11100007). To be honest I didn't know bike tires could be that good! The quality is phenomenal, the ride is so smooth and safe. Borrowing from another review, they are more like motorcycle tires and don't even compare to my previous tires. The old tires were soft, wobbly, and I had them inflated at least every month. Their rolling resistance is excellent, reducing fatigue and giving a safe feeling away from home and/or help. Easy to install in minutes, just make sure the tires are seated on the rim by inflating them to around 20psi. Then stop and apply pressure to the tire on both sides to ensure it is evenly seated on the rim, then inflate to full pressure. You will not be disappointed.

Pros
  • GOLS certificate
Cons
