The Marathon Plus is the only tire worldwide that can claim to be "flat-unbreakable." This is thanks to its unique, patented anti-puncture layer—five millimeters thick and made of special, highly elastic rubber. Even thumbtacks can't puncture this tire.
The new Marathon Plus isn't just "flat-less." It's also lighter to roll than ever before, and thanks to its anti-aging sidewalls, it's incredibly durable. It's also suitable and certified for fast e-bikes.

Rolls lighter

The unique puncture protection layer makes the Marathon Plus slightly heavier. Although the Marathon Plus weighs a bit more, its rolling characteristics are excellent. The laboratory test objectively confirms what one can already experience subjectively on the bike: the new Marathon Plus rolls significantly lighter than other tires with a comparably thick puncture protection layer.

Longer lifespan

The original Marathon Plus is now protected against premature aging due to weather influences or overloading due to low air pressure. We've developed a special "Anti-Aging" technology. This makes the sidewalls of the Marathon Plus extremely resistant to unsightly cracks.
In addition, the Marathon lives up to its name with a new rubber mix: the Endurance compound rolls thousands of kilometers with excellent handling and low wear.

Saves natural resources:

The Marathon Plus's puncture protection layer is extremely elastic. This is doubly important – for total protection and for dynamic rolling. This high elasticity can only be achieved with a special rubber compound containing a high percentage of natural rubber.
Natural rubber is a valuable resource. Recycling is only available at a very expensive cost. Despite this, we choose to do so. The new Marathon Plus's puncture protection layer is therefore made partly of recycled natural rubber.

Excellent for E-bikes:

E-bikes are a hot topic. Crucially, they're fitted with exceptionally stable, puncture-resistant tires that are durable. The Marathon Plus naturally meets all the requirements for e-bike tires. This applies not only to pedal-assisted e-bikes up to 25 km/h. The new Marathon Plus is certified in all common sizes with the European quality mark for e-bikes up to 50 km/h. The following sizes have the ECE-R75 quality mark: 47-406, 47-599, 37-622, 40-622, and 47-622.

Level 6 | SmartGuard
The most effective puncture protection available for bicycle tires. A solid, 5mm-thick layer of elastic, special rubber provides long-lasting protection, even against objects already driven into. Even a driven-in pin will remain "stuck" in the rubber without causing any damage.
