Bryan (http://bentrideronline.com/) let everyone know that Schwalbe may have two new 406 tires soon:

"Schwalbe introduced two new 406 tires at Spezialradmesse in Germany this past weekend. I was expecting a recumbent friendly version of the Kojak but a 406 Marathon Winter was a surprise. The Kojak is a fairly fat fast rolling slick and the Marathon Winter is a spiked tire for icy roads. I can see lots of great applications for both of these tires. Where would we be without Schwalbe?

Since Schwalbe dropped at least one 406 (the Slick), I think without Schwalbe we'd be... buying other tires. :D

VERY true... You definitely can buy multiple tires with the price of one Schwalbe!

Impressive, but pricey.
