Hi guys, This is my first post so I hope someone can help me please.
My old Fisher Hoo Koo e Koo has Araya RM 20 rims in decent nick.They are shod with Tioga 26 x1.85 tyres.I am wanting to fit Schwalbe marathon tyres for a bit less rolling resistance to my tiogas.More for commuting/general hack than real off road now.I was wanting to go with 26x1.5 size.Would this size fit my rims ok or would 1.5 tyres be to narrow.
Thanks .

  • be fine, and for light off road stuff, the marthons are suprisingly good. really grippy on road as well.
  • Roger, thank you for your reply.I will go with the marathons.They always seem to get a decent write up and your comments confirm this as well. .Cheers.Littlecherub
