Thanks. So they are not dogs. Flat resistant, mega wear and non-dogginess, if not spriteliness -- worth a closer look in case I come up with some extra change for Riv-helping purchases.
FWIW, the cheapish Specialized Hemisphere 38s that I now have on the Fargo's 2nd wheelset roll at ~40/50 as well as the 60mm+ Big Apples at say 16/20 and possibly climb a bit better thanks to considerably lower rim and tire and tube weights, but they are not worth the hassle and expense of a second wheelset and tireset. Perhaps the Marathons are. (I compare the two via the computer readout at ordinary cruising efforts in the same -- 67" -- gear on known, flat, paved surfaces, computer calibrated properly for each -- 17-18 is normal absent significant headwind.) Anyone else to chime in on the Marathons 38s/40s?
