Schwalbe Marathons are the gold standard when it comes to puncture resistance.

As Theo says, you have to see whether or not your forks have enough clearance for such wide tyres. Don't know why you need such wide tyres, though.

I used Schwalbe marathon supreme tyres before. Really good and puncture resistant with good grip. I even cycled on wet void decks before and slammed on the brakes without skidding. No joke.

Cons? Too heavy and slow compared to other slick tyres.

Nice. Hopefully 1 day i have the stamina and strength to try out.

Of course you can complete. Its just a matter of how much time one will take.

Singapore isn't exactly big.

Maybe a EDMW cycling gathering one of these days? Christmas is around the corner!

It has been raining almost daily, so i don't really expect to cycle much this month.
