I'm also in interested in the Marathon Racers, but in the 26 x 1.5in size for an All Rounder.
For a fairly fat tire, the folding version has a relatively light weight of 390 grams. The Marathon Racer is advertized as having a "pure skin sidewall," but I can't tell from the web if I should view this as a plus or minus. (I'm looking for a good brevet tire.) I recall the quest for supple fast 26" (ie 559) road tires came up in a recent thread. I don't recall anyone suggesting this is a tire for 26" wheels that provides a ride similar to the Hetres. Can anyone here compare them?
