I am a big fan of Schwalbe and have used many of their tyres on many bicycles. I bought these to use on one of my mountain bikes, which is really my bash-bike/general-purpose urban steed. I took off the 26 x 2.1 semi-slick tyres (also Schwalbe) to fit these slightly narrower 26 x 2.0. The material is excellent with a very thick case and chunky tread that should offer excellent longevity and puncture resistance. I noticed an immediate improvement in rolling resistance on roads, with better cornering and control on hard surfaces. There is enough volume and tread in the tire to use it on light off-road trails such as towpaths and fireroads.There are two minor disadvantages of this tire - it is quite heavy due to the thick material used,

I replaced the original Schwalbe 'Rapid Robs' that were on this mountain bike [ Claude Butler Alpine 2.7 ] with ‘Land Cruiser’ by Schwalbe. I was impressed by the internal puncture resist material 'tyre guard' as is often advertised on YouTube with the 'Marathon Plus' brand of tyres also by Schwalbe - These tyres also have the benefit of a thick dense rubber tread for off road use. I have 27.5 - 2.0 650B inch wheels not 26 inch which is the new go to size for Mnt bikes I would say. I have used them for a few days and am pleased with the limited rolling resistance, being smooth and fast despite their heavy weight.

If, like me, you tend to ride your MTB on the road as much as on the trails, then these tyres are for you. They still look like MTB tyres, with knobblies on the edge for cornering on loose or muddy terrain, but the middle strip is flatter for a smoother ride on the roads. Super cheap, and feel solid so far. Like most Schwalbe tyres, they are a little tight to get on (I had to push the last three inches into place using a lever to save my sore thumbs), but nothing too bad. I'm not great at roadside repairs, but I managed OK. Highly recommended, especially at this price. Fast delivery too.

Early days but so far so good, got out today to very muddy trails and they managed some grip on that sludge. I liked that on the road, you can see you're rolling on a thin strip of rubber and as a result they're quiet and great rolling for this kind of tyres. I rode them to work too and traction in the wet was no concern.18 months update : They’ve been perfect on my gravel wheels, no puncture on 90% off road use. Tested on a variety of surfaces, mud, sandy, dry stony, sharp gravel and they’ve been great for me, still look new too.

These are seriously good all weather tyres for hybrid bikes, ideal for riding on multiple surfaces. They have good sized tread but not as much as a mountain bike tyre so give good grip on looser surfaces. They have slightly more rolling resistance than Schwalbe Marathon so might not be the best choice for road touring, but probably down to personal preference. However I got a pair of these for the same price as a single Marathon, and Marathon tyres require a certain technique to change them whereas Land Cruiser are much easier.

A little more difficult to fit than the previous tyres which came with the bike, also they are a noticibly 'firmer' ride, however, no punctures since fitting them compared with 3 the previous month and I quickly got used to the firmer ride. All in all a good buy. Tyres arrived on time but were 'coiled' and so slightly kinked when I unpacked them, 24 hours later they were perfectly flat so no problems there.

Decent, started micro cracking on the walls within a couple of months of having them, but 10 months since the cracks started forming they're still holding up fine.A bit of rubber near the bead tore off after removing the tyre to fix a puncture. It's not bad enough to stop the bead doing it's job, as long as you keep the damage away from the valve (otherwise the bead pops right out).

I bought a pair of these to replace the two in the photo. I just came back from 20 mile ride and man oh man do I love these tires. There is a little rolling resistance but not much and the trails I tried today felt very confident and fast. I ride a Raleigh C-40 and I'm going back out after posting this. If you're looking to replace hybrid or medium mtb.give these a spin.

I liked that on the road, you can see you're rolling on a thin strip of rubber and as a result they're quiet and great rolling. I rode them to work too and traction in the wet was no concern. Can't judge on the weight as use them on heavier gravel wheels.

The tyre has a lot stiffer carcass and is thicker than the standard tyre that was a knobbly that was fitted to the back wheel of my bike, thanks to the thickness of the rubber in the centre line it is a smoother ride and feels more stable, I wanted to move away from knobbly tyres as I use my bike on roads more than rough stuff, very happy with this product!

I'm quite happy with the good quality of the rubber.Good to ride on the road: very small friction while going straight and good grip on the turns (haven't really tried them in strongly wet roads yet).Not bad on off-roads.Bought them less than 2 months ago, so can't say much more... let's see if they keep their good quality for long time.

I purchased these tyres as a replacement for my original 700x38c tyres on a Scott Hybrid cycle. They are slightly wider that the original tyres, much better grip and so far no punctures (which happened a lot with the old tyres). My cycle routes are a mixture of road and tracks and these tyres seem to be a great option for the price.

Probably the cheapest and most 'puncture proof' tyres you can buy. But more importantly, quality tyres which still offer excellent grip in most weathers and little in the way of excessive noise or rolling resistance. I have been a fan of these tyres for several years and this will be the fourth pair I've purchased to go on a bike.

I put these tyres on my hybred bike which had 622/32 tyres on it...The only issue i had was i needed to let the air out the rear tyre to get it passed the brake blocks...Nice tread and has made the bike look a bit more meatier....Im happy with these might get another pair for my crosstrail...
