Schwalbe Marathon XR Question!

I have an 85 Schwinn Voyageur SP that I run 27 x 1 1/4 tires on. Does anybody know where I can get Marathon XR's to fit this wheel size?

Thanks!

The only place to get XRs is Schwalbe [the North American distributor] so why not check their website and email them?

Yeah, this is where I got my XR's for my LHT from. It doesn't appear that they make the XR's for the 27" wheels as of yet. I think I will just end up getting the standard Marathon tyres...Chainreactioncycles has some great pricing also. Plus I want to get the Blackburn EX2 from them as it doesn't seem to be available in the U.S. yet.
