New Schwalbe Marathon Tires

My original Geax StreetRunner slick tires were getting cracked after about 1500 km of use, so I took the opportunity to put Schwalbe Marathon tires on the bike. Very good tires that are still fast despite being "treadier" than the Geaxes. I bet they will last longer, too, if reputation is any indication. Schwalbe Marathons have kevlar inside, and have a protective strip and their Marathon Plus line is even heavier duty. I like the Marathons so far; they feel quite grippy in the corners. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3047/2819135659_b7666c4912_o.jpg http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3153/2819980446_be404997b2_o.jpg http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3137/2819980560_45925e77e6_o.jpg
