Second, Schwalbe has a pretty good warranty service, that you can access online.

I have had them replace a couple of Marathon tyres that did basically the same thing you are describing. File a claim and attach some photos of the bubble (before you deflate and remove the tyre),and the serial and batch numbers from the interior.

It's asking for an image of the production code - any idea what that looks like, where I find it? Nothing jumps out at me. I called Schwalbe but am getting voicemail - I left a message but if they're a typical corporation I don't know what the odds are my message will be responded to.

-Edit-

Actually nevermind - I looked up when I bought them and it's outside of their warranty period. I got the tires in 2015 - I didn't realize I'd had them that long.

Thanks for the info though.
