    I find the marathon OK – not as lively as the Kojak but better for day to day riding. On the other hand the marathon plus is slower, and difficult to get on and off. But as bomb proof as any other tyre that I’ve used.

    i use both and find kojaks great for a slick and sporty ride but I opt for marathons on work horses,
    the name on the sidewall is a pretty accurate description……. Who luvs ya baby !

    David,

    Can only echo what Craig says. I find the Kojaks are great for fun rides but stick with the Marathons for day to day duties. In terms of difference in perceived effort, I can definitely feel the drag on the road with the Marathons but when load lugging even the kojaks max pressured they dont respond as well.
