Description
 
Schwalbe tires:

a.    Are really expensive to buy
b.    Never get flats
c.    Never wear out
d.    That's only a slight exaggeration, and so
e.    Despite the high cost, are cheaper to use if you ride a lot.

The Marathon Supreme is a particularly costly tire because it has all of Schwalbe's best & most expensive materials and methods in it. We sell only the 700x42 right now, and it measures not 42mm, but closer to 37.5mm when mounted on a 21mm wide rim. UPDATE: we are now selling 700x35 Supremes.  The 35 actually measures to be about 33mm.  

In our tire line-up, they're one notch fatter than the world-beatin'Jack Brown. Both are basically round fatty slicks. If you're looking for a fatter Jack Brown, just get the Schwalbe Marathon Supreme 700x42 (actually 37.5 or so).  495 grams.


Marathon Supreme vs. Jack Brown


Top to bottom: Ruffy Tuffy, Jack Brown, Mara Supreme

Kevlar bead (so it folds), and a Vectran belt. Vectran is the latest greatest densest lightest toughest thorn-foiling Kevlar out there, and that also jacks the price up.

If your bike fits these, you'll never regret putting them on.

NOW available in 26" x 1.6" (36mm actual) and 700x50 (45mm actual on 22mm rim).

Supreme Supremes April 19, 2013
Reviewer: Carl Schmidt from Milwaukie, OR United States  
I just swapped out 40mm Supremes with the same. They've been on the bike 2 years. Had 2 flats in that time... 1 nail and 1 piece of wire. They're not completely worn out but are pretty cut up, so it's time. Pulled 19 shards of glass out of the rear. All of them stopped by the belt. I'm sure much of that glass would have gotten through a lesser tire and caused a flat.
