A 650c inner tube or tyre WILL NOT fit a 700c wheel.Technologies: DuraSkin®: Tyres with DuraSkin sidewall protection have to roll with the punches. These tyres are used in the harshest conditions. On messenger bikes, on epic travel bikes crossing continents without wearing through and in professional cycling they have to endure tough tests such as Paris-Roubaix.

The slick natural rubber tread is designed to perform well in wet/wintery conditions. PolyX Breaker Technology: With their PolyX Breaker, Continental brings PKW know-how to the bike tyre arena – Polyester has been used successfully for years in car tyres and been tried and tested many times. The extremely resistant polyester fibre is woven tightly crosswire making a very high fabric density which not only makes the Breaker more resistant to foreign objects but is also resistant to punctures. The rolling resistance is not affected either by the PolyX Breaker. Buy Continental Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
The Schwalbe Marathon Plus has been a popular choice for commuters and tourers for many years and now after almost 10 years the tyre has been thoroughly overhauled and as a result it has a new, dynamic profile and boasts many internal improvements.One of the main features that makes this such a popular tyre is the SmartGuard 5 mm thick layer of flexible, special india rubber that offers durable puncture protection. SmartGuard has a crucial advantage especially with objects that lodge in the tread and that can be forced through almost any other protection belt by the rotation of the wheel. Here the SmartGuard has the advantage of thickness, because a thumbtack, for instance, simply remains in the rubber without damaging the tube. SmartGuard does not increase rolling resistance however the Marathon Plus rolls as easily as a tyre without protection. Puncture protection is further enhanced thanks to TwinSkin sidewalls which have an additional rubber coating on the side to protect against cuts and allows for uniform colouring.
