SmartGuard The most efficient protection belt there is for bike tyres, in other words: flatless. Solid, 5 mm thick layer of highly flexible special rubber provides permanent protection also in the case of embedded objects. Even thumbtacks are no problem for this tyre. Improved Rolling resistance The patented, 5 mm thick SmartGuard layer, when compared to all generic products, has a significant advantage in rolling resistance. We further extended its lead in the latest version. Also in the SmartGuard, we now use a proportion of recycled rubber from old latex products. "Anti-aging" side wall It now lasts much longer before developing unsightly cracks when subjected to use with too low air pressure. Tyre ETRTO: 26x2.1”: 54-559 27.5x2.1”: 54-584 29x2.1”: 54-622
Kevlar®Guard We have improved the well known Kevlar belt. This protective layer is stronger and safer but at the same time more flexible. This result in the protection level being higher and rolling resistance lower
This tyres features: GreenGuard. The highly elastic, India rubber layer is 3mm thick. Other manufacturers call such a tyre "Plus". However, Green is not just the colour, but also the philosophy: One third of the GreenGuard is made up of recycled latex products. "Anti-Ageing". The completely new sidewall construction can withstand for much longer the typical cracking resulting from overloading due to insufficient inflation pressure. Also the new Endurance Compound substantially increases durability. E-Bike Ready. The new Marathon has been designed for use on all types of E-Bikes.

The spikes work best on ice when running at minimum pressure, while at maximum pressure the tyres can be ridden on ice-free roads with minimal road noise. Spikes F&Q's Can it also be ridden on a normal road? Without any problem, but if the road is only rarely covered with snow the resulting tyre noise may prove annoying. And it won't slide out in cornering? No. The spikes 'claw' really well into normal asphalt roads and even fast cornering is not a problem. Aren't spikes illegal? Bike tyre spikes are no problem. Only motor vehicles spikes are prohibited in some countries, because they damage the road. Fast E-bikes are however considered motor vehicles. Do the tyres have to be run in? In order to ensure that spikes are permanently fixed, tyres should be run in for about 25 miles on asphalt, while avoiding any fast acceleration or heavy braking. What is the lifespan of the spikes? All Schwalbe spikes have a core made of extremely hard wearing tungsten carbide, so they can cover a few thousand miles. It is normal for the spike edges to round off and for them to become more deeply embedded.
The spikes work best on ice when running at minimum pressure, while at maximum pressure the tyres can be ridden on ice-free roads with minimal road noise. In order to ensure that spikes are permanently fixed, tyres should be run in for about 40km on asphalt, while avoiding any fast acceleration or heavy braking.

During these 100 years Columbus has increased its knowledge to correctly define every functional aspect of a fork, thoroughly calculating the optimum side and frontal strength parameters, without omitting the aesthetic aspect and lightness of the piece. Since more than 90 years the forks made with Columbus steel fork blades are all of this. Today the use of carbon fibre gives more lightness to this component and allows Columbus to capitalise its experience. Carbon fibre is 4 times more resistant than steel and 8 times more resistant than alloy, and thanks to its versatility and sense of direction of the fibres.
