  • @Vince they look great! That's about as snug as you'll want them. Would be interesting to see if you get any spray from them in the wet. Might consider these over the Marathon Plus' as I could run them at a lower pressure for extra comfort without worrying about sidewall damage.

  • Update on the Schwalbe Pick-Up & Douze

    The don't roll as well as Marathon Plus.
    The front end is noticably heavier to manoeuvre, almost unpleasant.
    The rear end feels like it's stealing 25W of power constantly.

    Since they're bigger, they also raise the bike a little, meaning the centre stand doesn't touch the ground in more occasions.

    All in, would not recommend and I am contemplating getting a new normal size front tyre.
