Well, I'm departing for a back roads tour in New Zealand in a few weeks.
I'll be doing plenty of k's on gravel roads, and a fair bit on bitumen
too.
Currently I have 26" x 1.6" Marathon Supremes fitted for my
local rides. I really like the Supremes, they are fast and light. My
quandary is will they be robust enough for the gravel roads I'll
encounter in New Zealand.
So I have sitting in front of me a set
of 26" x 2.0" Marathon Supremes, and a set of 26" x 2.0" Marathon
Duremes, which are quite a bit heavier, but no doubt more durable.
Question is, do I really need the added durability? I favour the lighter
and faster tyre.
Sigh - decisions, decisions...
