Hi, looking for some anti-puncture tyres for GF's bike.
Not too fussed about drag, rolling resistance et c. What really counts is toughness, she's had enough of being late to work with flats.
So, what do you guys recommend?

Schwalbe Marathon Plus
Marathon Plus? Add a separate polyprop breaker strip inside and/or slime the tubes if it is to be truly 'must not fail'.
Schwalbe Marathon Plus.
I was getting punctures nearly every ride until I changed to these and none since. They are heavy but with little rolling resistance and picking up speed easily they can be forgiven.
I think you have your answer.
Marathon Plus all the way. Put a set on 2.5 years ago after getting weekly punctures with some continental jobs. Havent had a puncture since...
Just to buck the trend I use specialized armadillo tyres not had a flat yet
Looks like an answer, thanks all for your help, will get that sorted.
