For my wife's AWOL.

Probably 75/25 on/off road and nothing major, smoother bridleways, tow paths, etc.

The Spesh Boroughs that came with it are fine, but she struggles to get the wire bead on and off in the cold.

Something similar to those with a folding bead and p****ure protection would be ideal.

Thinking NOS old style Marathon Deluxes or maybe Mondials?

Voyager Hypers are very popular, but can only find 38's and not sure how they'd suit her off road.

All other ideas appreciated, thanks in advance.

I've got Voyager Hypers in a 42 from Planet X. I've used them on the kind of off road you're talking about and they're fine.

She's gone for Conti Top Contact 42's.

Look decent, wide and a reasonable price from the Germans.
