Well no punctures with the marathon yet, but it's not exactly inspiring much confidence. Had a dodgy slide on a raised white line and then had a proper front wheel skid when a tramp strolled out in front of me yesterday evening. Don't know how I didn't stack it.
Oh and it feels slooow as well, compared to the Brompton kevlars. Don't know if that's just in my head...

Looks awesome, hope it doesn't cleave your bum in twain...
Im I'm week two of Brompton ownership, 151 miles in and got my first puncture on the standard Brompton tyres. Tiny bit of flint got through the front, luckily heard the rush of escaping air just as I was pulling up to my car, so chucked a marathon greenguard on when I got home.
How are the ti folding bits working? Read somewhere that the little handle things are painful to use compared to the normal ones?
