Clear Structure.
Better Orientation.
Schwalbe is now categorizing its TOUR portfolio into three clearly defined families: MARATHON, MOTION, and HYBRID. From there, riders can easily find the right model for their individual needs. With this realignment of the product range, Schwalbe aims to make choosing the right tire simpler and more efficient. To achieve this, the portfolio is being reduced by 30% and given a clear, new structure.

Restructure.
Going forward, there will no longer be a distinction between Active, Performance, and Evolution Line. The focus is on Schwalbe and the product. Alongside the "Schwalbe Line" (which replaces the Active and Performance Line), there is now only one step up to the "Schwalbe PRO" Line. The "PRO" stands for the maximum in performance for the respective application — replacing the former Evolution Line.

The new Schwalbe range
The new families.
From now on, there are three families within each of the three major cycling worlds — City & Tour, Dropbar, and MTB. Each stands for a clear area of use and helps you find the right tire faster.
For the long run
MARATHON
Schwalbe MARATHON tires are the reliable choice for everyday life on two wheels — long-lasting, worry-free, and built for every ride, from the city to the big cycling tour.
The Marathon family has historically grown around the original Marathon tire — the pioneer in durability and puncture protection since 1983.
The name Marathon has always stood for the highest quality and the latest in tire technology. The Marathon Plus models have consistently managed to set a new benchmark in puncture protection and are therefore the only tires that can claim to be "puncture-resistant." With "puncture-resistant," you can count on it. A Marathon product is a carrier of innovation and technology. The Green Marathon — as the most eco-friendly tire — continues down this path with conviction, proving that constant further development is an essential part of Schwalbe's DNA.
Every Marathon tire is a promise: A premium product you can rely on in any situation.
NEW
MARATHON ALMOTION
The Marathon Almotion is our benchmark for touring tires. This sporty member of the Marathon family is available as a foldable PRO version for the highest demands and as a more affordable wire bead tire. For you, it's a versatile and super lightweight companion for tours and travel. The Marathon Almotion also combines ultimate riding performance with enhanced puncture protection.
For every day
MOTION
A Schwalbe MOTION is the everyday tire for your own path — individual, versatile, and always ready. Choose your tread and ride exactly the way that suits you.
The Motion family brings together all tires for personal expression. Motion tires offer individual tread patterns for individual needs.
From robust and load-bearing for demanding use on cargo bikes to light and dynamic for sporty urban bikes. In line with our guiding principle "the right tire for every bike," Motion models with their alternative tread patterns serve current trends just as well as the specific requirements of their respective applications.
The Motion family appeals to all-rounders & individualists, without compromising on functionality.
NEW
MOTION Kojak
The Schwalbe Motion Kojak is a fast, sporty tire for modern urban bikes. Its contemporary tread design not only rolls exceptionally smoothly but also delivers very good grip. With the Motion Kojak's strong braking performance and solid cornering grip, you'll breeze through the urban jungle every day.
NEW
MOTION Landcruiser (Plus)
The Schwalbe MOTION Land Cruiser is our tire for trekking bikes and all-terrain bikes. Its new, modern tread makes it the perfect companion for on- and off-road adventures: it rolls pleasantly smooth on asphalt and handles any dirt track or forest path with ease. Whatever you're in the mood for, the Land Cruiser is up for it. It's also available as a Plus version with enhanced puncture protection.
For everywhere
HYBRID
A Schwalbe HYBRID is the crossover tire for SUVs and MTBs – tough off-road, reliable in everyday use, and built for those who want to go everywhere. The Hybrid family covers crossover tires for SUVs and MTBs that are also ridden in daily use.
Our Hybrid tires combine everyday and touring capability with off-road performance and puncture protection. They are an excellent fit for SUV bikes. Depending on the model, the balance between on- and off-road characteristics varies. Visually, this is always underlined by an attractive tread design. Voluminous like MTB tires, the models in the Hybrid family still roll quietly and smoothly on asphalt.
All tires in the Hybrid family deliver on both paved roads and unpaved trails.
NEW
HYBRID Johnny Watts Radial
The HYBRID Johnny Watts is the first tire for SUV e-bikes featuring our innovative radial carcass. It's practically prepared for anything: in everyday city use, it's the go-getter that gets you safely to your destination. On off-road excursions, it sparks a sense of adventure and lets you discover new terrain. And with the advantages of the radial carcass, it adapts significantly better to the surface beneath you. Bumps and vibrations are noticeably absorbed before they reach your hands, arms, or shoulders. Especially on long tours or rough roads, this makes a real difference in terms of comfort and safety.
NEW LABEL
Visible on the tire too
The labels not only get the new Schwalbe look, but are also updated in terms of the size and order of the individual details:
- The respective family comes first: Marathon, Motion, or Hybrid
- Followed by the blue-highlighted PRO suffix (where applicable)
- Then the model name, e.g. Almotion or Pick-Up
- Followed by variant details, TLR (Tubeless Ready, if applicable), the respective size, recommended tire pressure, and maximum load where relevant
COMPOUNDS

Compounds
Going forward, almost all tires in the city/touring segment will use either our most eco-friendly rubber compound ADDIX Green, formerly known as ADDIX Eco, or the Green Compound. Exceptions remain only for PRO Line models and the 365 models for very specific requirements.
