Tires are needing replaced.. So far, I'm considering the Schwalbe Classic HS 159 Tyre or Schwalbe Marathon Bike Tire. Personally I like the classic look, but heard the marathon is better suited. Can anyone help me choose?
I love Schwalbe Marathons, they can be a bit heavy and slow though. I just love how they hold up over time. I would say that it depends on the road and load. I like the peace-of-mind with my Marathons. Don’t buy tires based on how pretty they look.

I like panaracer pasela PT for that classic look. Sure marathons will last you longer but feel sluggish and are a pita to fit when you flat.
