Maximum puncture protection for race machines! The Durano Plus has a SmartGuard
belt for extremely effective protection against penetration punctures. The strong, highly elastic, special rubber layer is not as thick as in the Marathon Plus. Nevertheless it has
a level of protection unparalleled in racing cycle tires.

700 x 28 please!!!

I also love my Durano 700 x 28 tires. A layer of Smartguard would make it the perfect tire too, since the 28s are the perfect size tire for training… more comfortable than 23s and still performance oriented…

700x28 please!

I love my 700x28 Duranos, but adding a layer of Smartguard would make them the perfect tire for me.

Looking for the best tire for both worlds. Thinking the Durano Plus is the one to get. Most miles will be on pristine roads but if we see nice gravel roads and/or dirt we might ride through. Don’t want to fuss around. Just want 1 tire to keep up with roadies and go off in gravel with minimal flats.

Thanks

Great tyre!

I have been running the Stelvio Plus (now Durano Plus) for about two years. Never had a single puncture! And I have been riding even in sand and gravel roads. There is a small weight penalty compared to ~200g racing tyres, but in my opinion these are still pretty fast rolling.

what kind of tube, if any, do i need to use with this tire?

How thick is the SmartGuard Layer?

In the Marathon Plus it’s 5mm of SmartGuard. Add the tread and casing and it’s about 1 cm between the road and the inner tube.

What are the specs on this tire? And, are these the same as the Stelvio Plus?

Thanks.

SmartGuard Layer

The Durano Plus is very similar to the Stelvio Plus, the only main differences are the name and the slightly different tread pattern, the puncture protection is the same using the SmartGuard. The SmartGuard in the Durano Plus is a little thinner than the Marathon Plus and would be about 3mm thick. When combined with the tread and casing it would have a total thickness of about 6-7mm.

Thanks for that. Another question— any chance that the Durano Plus will come in the larger sizes that the Durano comes in?

.. and the smaller sizes?

I would love Durano Plus in the 406 and 451 sizes (I’m a Bike Friday rider). I realize the Stelvio Plus never got that small, but I always wished it would. I’ve always loved the Stelvios except for the flats!

406 is a MUST!!!

I know for a fact that a Durano Plus in the 406 would be the best selling 406.

All you have to do is offer it!!!

Yes, Please!

There doesn’t seem to be a Smart Guard solution for us 451 riders. I’d certainly be buying them!

406 for the Folding Tourists!

Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 02/06/2009 - 8:46pm.

There aren’t many options for a 406 road tire with excellent puncture resistance. I used Marathon Supremes on my BF Pocket Llama for my camping tour from Oostende (BE) to Augsburg (DE). Bravo Schwalbe, they never flatted once, but I wished I could have rolled a little faster. 42mm is too wide for a road tire, but I did appreciate the extra traction when tackling some logging roads and unpaved paths in the Schwäbisch Alps. As an occasional off-road, all-rounder touring tire, the Supremes truely shine.

My next tour will be strictly on good road, so minimizing rolling resistance is a must. So far it looks like the Marathon Plus, but the weight is a turn-off.

I could see a light, but highly puncture-resistant 28 or 32x406 slick having wide appeal for all folding riders. I’d be happy whether it’s a narrow Marathon Supreme or a Durano Plus!

Another vote for 406

I would also love the Durano Plus in 406 size.

Currently using the Marathon Plus, and I don’t want to give up its protection, but I would love to shed some weight…

406 for me, too!

On city streets there’s plenty of little glass and metal shards for my poor tires to pick up, and I’ve certainly had my share! I’d happily pay a premium for more puncture-resistant tires if it means I don’t have to fix a flat on a dark, cold, rainy morning…
