Can change very easily. It took the tire iron hardly - very pleasant! The driving characteristics: in good dry weather, a very quiet, low resistance and thus faster tires. In cold weather, rain, snow and ice a very safe contemporary. Keeps track properly. In a little less pressure, the side knobs eat literally stuck in mud and snow, thus enabling a safe journey. And as a big plus: Despite vast amounts of gravel, I had this winter is no glitch. By comparison, last winter with Schwalbe tires Mararthon I had 1-2x per week a flat tire thanks to the splits. Am thrilled - highly recommended!
