L2B Off Road - CX Tyres

Hi guys,
I'm looking at doing the London to Brighton Off Road ride this year on a Boardman CX Team. It's got Schwalbe Marathons on at the mo, what CX tyres would you recommend?
Anybody done it?
Cheers

Ugo, will these fit alright on Crest ZTRs?
The bike came with them, heard they're a nightmare for a lot of tyres...
Hard battle with those rims!
Been trawling through forums for someone with a story about getting tyres on easily...
Find me on Strava
It's a mixture or rim profile and width, I have tried to come to terms with the difference in this article, but probably needs updating

Ugo, I found an old thread that had a picture of a bike of yours (black bike, green detailing, brooks saddle, ZTR Alpha 340s) - what tyres did you have on that set up?

Monty, will 40mm Smart Sams easily fit a Crest 29er rim?
I just wrestled off the Schwalbe Marathons (35mm)... blisters galore.
I've run them on Crests as well as my mate on a number of times along the Southdowns Way. It would appear that the newer ones have slacker beads judging by difficulty in getting new tyres to run tubeless - ghetto rimstrip is the answer.
