  • Another sidewall bites the dust...

    My "Schwalbe Energizer Plus TOUR GreenGuard Wired EBike", in use for 3 months only, didn't like going down a pavement kerb (unloaded).

    Got some Schwalbe Pick-up this time so hopefully will last longer than Energizer (3 months) / Marathon Plus (6 months).

    First impressions - feels heavy and almost like a moped tyre. Inspiring confidence!

    EDIT: Purchased from Fawkes Cycles online, 20 x 2.15 front £31.65, 26 x 2.15 rear £33.95

  • Front tyre fits 👌 fine. No rubbing in the mudguards.

    Schwalbe PickUp Pick-Up front tyre 55-406 (20x2.15)

    20" Front rim inner width = 19mm
    True tyre width at 3.5psi = 53mm so not far off spec

    I took the opportunity to remove the inner tube core valve and added 50ml of tubeless sealant.
