Schwalbe Unisex's Big Ben Plus Perf, GreenGuard, Snakeskin Tyres, Black, 55-406

I'll start by saying that these tires are amazing and reliable, as this is not my first pair of big Ben plus but my second. The first time I ordered, they came in a box in perfect shape. Not this time. Bell's bike shop literally twisted them up and shoved them in a bag wrapped up with tape. The result was that the tires sprung out of the bag and didn't just return to the original shape but are mangled. I haven't installed them yet, but if I have an issue I will return these as I paid nearly $100 for the pair. Was it really such a huge shipping savings to get them in a bag rather than a box? Mangled vs pristine? Hopefully they perform like my last big Ben plus that I put 3000 hard miles on and still going. This pair is for a new bike. I could be overreacting and maybe it did no harm, but I was definitely more confident with the first shipment. I do have confidence in the materials and craftsmanship of the product and I am hoping that these guys know exactly what they can and can't do to tires, and I am thankful for them carrying the product.That's my 2 cents.

Exact replacement for what’s on my wife E-bike

Excellent quality and a great ride. Fit my Magnum Ebike pefecty.

The extra cush you get from the Big Ben makes a world of difference in comfort on my Bullitt. I could use a Marathon Plus for a Beyond-Category level of flat protection, but the reasonably thick casing and the under-tread belt give very nearly the same level of protection in a larger size. If I add to that a thornproof tube with sealant added, and I have a very survivable urban assault solution.So far, grip on this tire is solid wet or dry. The larger 2.4" size makes for excellent load-bearing ability as well as comfort. A rim with a wider internal channel will work better for such a tire, of course, so mind your rim specs when picking a tire.

I had a set of old school tires that originally came on the Chicago Schwinn cruisers in the late '70s/early '80s and I needed to replace them. First, I tried the same type of tires with the same tread pattern - the blackwall Duro HF-851, to be exact. I had no idea there would be such a big difference between the worn tires and the new tires - the new tires had so much rolling resistance that it felt like I was riding up hill all the time compared to the old worn out tires. I'm not knocking the Duro tires - I just don't think they were designed with a daily 20 mile commute in mind. I bought the Schwalbe tires based on other reviews. At first I hated the way they looked on my cruiser but after riding on them I'm starting not to care so much about the looks because they roll so much more freely and pedal so much easier that it feels like a totally different bike. Now, if I could find the same tires in a blackwall without the reflective stripe that would be even better.

Tough and strong. Stronger than regular bike tires

These came on our Yuba Mundo and I liked them so much I ordered a set for our other cargo bike as well. So far, no flats on either bike!

Bought this for my electra townie 7d luna bbshd ebike conversion. The stock tires sucked on my townie. This size works perfect for townies with no fenders but mine has the fenders. I had to make a small 1" extension for the rods going from the fender to the frame because the tire was rubbing the rods. I imagine It works perfect with the 2" wide tires with the fenders but i wanted as big as i could with fenders. But with the modification it works perfect

Easy to fit. Perfect for cycling around city streets.

Genau so wie beschrieben

Sehr gutes stabiles Produkt. Wie beschrieben.

Usato per una bici elettrica Riese & Muller con cerchione da 20 pollici è stata consegnata in anticipo e ben imballata. Montaggio facile, qualità ottima e perfettamente uguale all'originale sostituito. Molto soddisfatta anche per il prezzo corretto.

Im ersten Moment dachte ich , na soviel breiter sind die Decken nicht , aber man fährt einfach nur besser mit diesen Reifen. Ich glaube das ich eine gute Entscheidung getroffen habe.
