FLAT-LESS

THE ORIGINAL FROM SCHWALBE

MARATHON PLUS TIRES FOR BIKES AND E-BIKES

Marathon Plus tires are the only tires in the world that can truly claim to be flat-less. This is thanks to their unique patented puncture protection belt. What’s more, they offer exceptional long life, dynamic rolling behavior and many more superior features. Marathon Plus tires are only available from Schwalbe.

TIRES

Do you ride your bike mainly around town? Do you ride your bike cross-country or over off-road terrain? Do you need the highest level of puncture resistance for your bike? Whatever the demands, there is the right Schwalbe flat-less tire for you. And, if you ride an e-bike to get around, we have now developed Marathon E-Plus, the first Schwalbe flat-less tire designed specifically for e-bikes.

LONG LIFESPAN

Weather conditions and low air pressure can lead to early aging of bike tires. This is the reason we have developed an anti-aging technology: it prevents ugly cracks in the tire sidewalls.
At the same time, Marathon Plus and Marathon Plus Tour live up to their name thanks to their rubber compound: the endurance compound cruises smoothly for thousands of miles with outstanding handling behavior and low abrasion. And, in the case of the specific high loads supported by e-bikes, Marathon E-Plus, with ADDIX-E compound, is especially suitable, offering maximum durability and grip.

OUTSTANDING ROLLING FEATURES


Thanks to the unique puncture protection, the weight of Marathon Plus tires is slightly higher, but rolling behavior remains excellent. Laboratory tests confirm what riders experience on their bikes: Marathon Plus tires roll significantly more smoothly than other tires with puncture protection belts of a similar thickness.

RESOURCE-FRIENDLY


The Marathon Plus tire puncture protection belt is extremely elastic – essential for flat-less protection and dynamic rolling. This high elasticity can only be achieved by using a special rubber, containing a high proportion of natural rubber.
Natural rubber is a valuable raw material. To conserve resources, we incorporate a portion of recycled natural rubber in our flat-less protection belts. This recycling process is very expensive – but we feel it’s worth it.

FLAT-LESS FOR E-BIKES

FLAT-LESS FOR E-BIKES

A flat tire on an e-bike is especially annoying because the repair is likely to cost more. At the same time, an e-bike makes special demands on a tire because it is significantly heavier due to the motor and battery pack and reaches higher average speeds.




Schwalbe’s answer to this tire challenge has been to develop Marathon Plus with Smart DualGuard: a tire whose flat-less puncture protection technology has been attuned to the specific demands of e-bikes. Marathon E-Plus brings riding safety, durability, smooth rolling, stability and longevity together in one tire.

Good to know: All other Marathon Plus tires meet the high demands required for e-bike tires. And, not only for e-bikes with pedal assist up to 25 km/h. Marathon Plus, like Marathon Plus MTB, is certified in standard sizes with the European test mark ECE R75 for speed e-bikes up to 50 km/h.

E-bikes are exposed to especially heavy loads due to their weight and high average speeds. This is the reason we have developed Marathon E-Plus. Discover the advantages!
The new Marathon E-Plus is more than simply flat-less. It combines safety, durability, easy rolling, stability, and a long life, all in one.

INCREASED LONGEVITY

The anti-aging sidewall endures typical overloads caused by low air pressure for significantly longer.

HIGH STABILITY

A new carcass structure with additional fabric lining in the sidewalls stabilizes the tires for higher load capacity.

GREATER PUNCTURE RESISTANCE

Smart DualGuard is the safest puncture-resistant system for e-bike tires on the market. The SmartGuard puncture-resistant lining (1) is strengthened by two layers of RaceGuard woven fabric (2). Resistance to penetration by sharp objects is also significantly enhanced. Flat-less I Level 7 puncture resistance
