SmartGuard®

Most effective protection belt available for bicycle tires. A substantial, 5 mm thick layer of flexible, special india rubber offers durable protection. Works also for objects that lodge in the tread. Even a thumbtack won’t harm it.
Flat-less

GreenGuard

Same principle as the SmartGuard, but only about 3 mm thick. One-third of the highly elastic India rubber is made up of recycled latex products. The same safety, but affordable PunctureGuard is not as highly elastic.

V-Guard

An extremely cut-resistant high-tech fiber makes it possible to ensure even on very light tires an extraordinary high level of puncture resistance. In combination with SnakeSkin sidewall protection, we call it Double Defense Technology.

RaceGuard®

Double layer of Nylon fabric. Good protection for light, sporty tires.

Kevlar® Guard

Our new minimum standard protection belt. Together with the 50 EPI carcass all Active Line tires are well protected against punctures.

High density woven carcass without a separate protection belt. Only found in special, super-light weight competition tires.

Coarse carcass material. No protection belt. These tires are not available from Schwalbe.
