Reviews over the

Schwalbe Green Marathon

Compared to the previous set of tyres (Fat Frank), this tyre tracks well and is less susceptible to longitudinal ruts. Because the tread extends quite far round the sidewall, it’s noticeably easier to steer the wheel back onto the track if you accidentally veer onto the verge. To make fitting the tyre easier, lightly grease the rim with a piece of soap – just as you would with a tubeless car tyre – and it will sit and centre easily.

Pros & Cons

To set new tires took less time than I expected. Plastic levers and special liquid for easy centering did the job. From the first glance and tactile those are great made tires. They are rolling great and the size is perfect. Servise from Mantel is simply the best.

Pros & Cons

I've never had a puncture with these tyres.

You can see it and feel it straight away when you fit this tyre. Quality! I’ve taken to it straight away.

Pros & Cons

Tyre sits nicely on the rim, no stroke in the tyre despite straight rim. The tyre is also well balanced. If you spin the rear wheel hard, there is only a very slight imbalance. While mounting the tyre, it is very loose around the rim for my taste. If you don't pay attention, the rim falls out again as hard as you put it in.

Pros & Cons

Just what you expect from a tyre. Easy to fit, very good anti-puncture protection, no fuss, just does what it needs to do at an affordable price.

Pros & Cons

The outer tyre I was already very satisfied with and that was a good purchase never knew an outer tyre was that good

Pros & Cons

I really like the band.

A positive expectation I have been using the tyres for years

Pros & Cons

To replace front tyre gazelle city bike. Looks good quality, easy to fit. Puncture resistance will have to prove itself over time. Tyre seems to roll smoothly and have good traction.

Pros & Cons

Well packaged, not skewed so easy to install

Pros & Cons

Tyre mounted and already used!

Pros & Cons

Not difficult to assemble . Ordered Sunday afternoon, delivered Monday morning.

Pros & Cons

Fine tape, delivered quickly and easy to note.

Pros & Cons

Fine!

Pros & Cons

Tyre is as described, has good grip on the (wet) road. The tyre is a bit stiff with fitting but is doable by itself.

Pros & Cons

I've had several punctures in a few months and was recommended schwalbe marathon tyres. I haven't had a puncture since.

Very nice tyres, ride extremely comfortable. I feel they have very little rolling resistance. As far as I could find on the internet, rolling resistance is slightly lower than on previous generation Marathon (2015 Marathon Greenguard). The bike rides much smoother than on the 10-year-old Marathon tyres that were on it. Fitting is a bit fiddly, you only get the tyres fitted neatly with enough soap and water on the rims and a very high tyre pressure (5-6bar). Without soap, then the reflection stripe is "crooked".
