The Marathon Supreme is a super tough touring tire that maintains excellent ride quality and is the lightest in the Marathon line.
Schwalbe's HD SpeedGuard puncture protection breaker is made up of tightly woven fibers to keep flats at bay while preserving a supple ride. LiteSkin sidewall is super tough but also lightweight. RoadStar triple rubber compound provides excellent grip and long tread life. Water channels further wet weather handling. Reflective stripe on sidewall. Folding bead further lightens the load.
This version of the Marathon Supreme comes in 29 x 2.0 Inch (50-622mm ISO). Actual weight: 658 grams.
Note: Schwalbe labels this tire as "28 x 2.0 Inch" (due to European sizing standards). This is actually the same size as "29 x 2.0 Inch" and "700c x 50mm" (50-622 ISO). If you have questions regarding tire sizing, please contact us for details.

Tough, perfect commuter retro for your 29er.
Mounted a set of these on my Surly Ogre that I am using as a commuter grocery getter. Really pleased with these. Low rolling resistance, tough as nails and seem to have good traction. Also like the reflective sidewall a lot. No flats at all as of yet, Have pulled several goat heads out that did not penetrate. I am seriously thinking about going with Schwalbe Ultremo tubeless tires on my racing bike as well after using these. Great tire.

Needed tires for my Talon 29er
I needed tires for paved bike trail riding for my Talon 29er, the Kenda small blocks work great off road, but these are far superior on pavement. No flats to deal with!
