Technology:

Performance
Excellent quality for intensive use.

SnakeSkin
A light and flexible fabric layer on the sidewall makes the tyre resistant against side damage.

Double Defense®
Combined puncture protection under the tread and on the sidewalls.
This is available in three versions. In the Race version SnakeSkin (all around) and RaceGuard (under the tread) protect additionally. On Tour tyres, SnakeSkin works on the sidewalls and high-density V-Guard is under the tread. " Plus" tyres combine a layer of GreenGuard under the tread and SnakeSkin on the sidewalls.

GreenGuard®
Same operating principle as used by the SmartGuard but only approx. 3 mm thick. One third of the highly elastic natural rubber is obtained from recycled latex products. Schwalbe has developed its own process technology for this purpose: In the Schwalbe factories, old products made of natural rubber (such as gloves, tubes, etc.) are shredded and returned to production as the basic material via several process steps.

E-50
For fast e-bikes a special approval of the tyres is necessary. Tyres with ECE-R75 approval valid throughout Europe are the simplest solution here. All Energizer tyres carry the test mark and are approved for vehicles up to 50 km/h.

ADDIX
ADDIX is also available as a Performance compound. The compound is very durable and meets a wide range of requirements. Similar to ADDIX Speedgrip it is a universal compound, but the tyres are not quite as light and not quite as fast as the Evolution Line.

by Georg O. on 02.02.2021

Es war ein Versuch - den ich dann doch etwas enttäuscht beendet habe. Der Big Ben ist pannensicher, ganz klar. Der Verschleiß ist minimal - auch gut. Aber ich wurde das Gefühl nicht los, durch Knete zu fahren. Der Rollwiderstand war unabhängig vom gefahrenen Luftdruck gefühlt höher, als bei anderen Reifen. Hinzu kam, dass die erhoffte Dämpfung durch den größeren Querschnitt zu gering ausfiel, um diesen schweren und zähen Reifen zu rechtfertigen. Und auf nassen Untergründen ist etwas mehr Feingefühl gefragt.
Wer "Performance" will, sollte vielleicht einen anderen Reifen nehmen. Wer einen pannensicheren Ballonreifen für die City sucht der ewig läuft, kann sich den Big Ben aber ruhigen Gewissens draufschnallen.
