The original Schwalbe Marathon 16 inch tire. These tires are 47-305 and are rated for 3.5-5.0 bar or 50 to 70 psi. The Schwalbe Marathon 16 inch tire is an upgrade for your Strida from the Strida 16 inch tires. The Schwalbe Marathon tires will mount on the Strida EVO and Strida 5.0 spoke 16 inch wheels. These tires will not mount on the Strida Lt 16 inch plastic wheels. The Marathon tire is wider, has a deeper tread and is larger in diameter by 10 mm.
From the Schwalbe website, The archetypal high quality touring tire. The highly elastic GreenGuard layer is 3 mm thick. One third of the GreenGuard is made up of recycled latex products. The “Anti-Aging” sidewall can withstand the typical cracking that results from overloading due to insufficient inflation pressure for much longer.
