Marathon is about $50 here, which is rather ridiculous for a bike
tire. If I was living in Copenhagen and it was $25 at the corner shop,
I'd gladly mount a set to my city bike. ;-) Paselas are always
available on sale via the internet for $12, and under $20 if you can
find them in a shop. $25 for the kevlar belted versions which ride a
bit rougher.
We'll see how it changes with the exchange rates with this strange
economy. The dollar usually purchases around 5-6 Swedish Krona, but
it's nearly at 8 right now! Schwalbes and Vredesteins might get
cheap. ;-)
