this is a repeat to a degree, but worth repeating

Nice bike you should ride the heck out of it with no mods other than tires.

forget about "hybrid" tires and heavy marathons (and note the 38 mm marathons will not fit you rimes.

The best thing you can do for ride is getting high end supple tires. Forget the marathon plus (never mind that 38mm is too small for your rims, if the are the Oquo Mountain Performance MP30LTD, carbon hookless rim, DT240 S CL hub, Sram XD MTB freehub, 30mm internal width, Sapim CX-Ray TCS spokes, 29"

I suggest Rene Herse tires this looks like the smallest you can go is this one https://www.renehersecycles.com/shop...-pass-tc-tire/


here is repeat of post under does 29 = 700 thread

you ordered a performance mountain bike and it will be specced for that, so you should expect mountain bike size rims

700cc = 29 but it is more complicated than that.

you have to be careful with tires as it looks like you have a hookless rim (specs show Oquo Mountain Performance MP30LTD, carbon hookless rim) with 30mm rims that are designed for tubeless) this could be different that exactly what you ordered so it is important to know exactly what wheels (and rims) you are getting

a lot of smaller tires will not fit well with the 30 mm width

the schwalbe are likely to not fit, look at these instead in the endurance build https://www.renehersecycles.com/shop...-pass-tc-tire/
