Schwalbe Kojak tires and quality cloth rim tape

Replaced the stock Schwalbe Marathons with Schwalbe Kojak tires for significantly lower rolling resistance and a quieter ride.  While I was at it, I installed high quality rim tape to protect the higher pressure tubes.  Definitely worth it.

These tires are fast and sticky, but only on pavement.  They are not as versatile or pinch-flat resistant as the stock Marathons.
