Schwalbe Marathon Plus MTB Wire Bead Tyre

The MTB Schwalbe Marathon Plus HS468 wire bead tyre in size 26 x 2,10 (54-559) is designed for mountain bikes with 26 inch wheels. It is a tubetype tyre, so it must be fitted with an inner tube: check that the tube is compatible with this size before buying.

The Dual compound and 5 mm SmartGuard protective layer are designed for riders seeking puncture protection off-road. The stated weight is 1.15 kg, and the wire bead (Drahtreifen) requires rims with this type of edge. To choose, start with your rim's ETRTO size 54-559 and the terrain you ride most often.

Schwalbe was established in Germany in 1973 by Ralf Bohle, with roots in the family business founded in Bergneustadt in 1922. Today it is based in Reichshof and makes bicycle tyres and inner tubes. Its name means “swallow” in German and translates Swallow, the name of the first tyres imported from Korea.
