Can someone please advise me which 26X1.5 ones to order. It is for road use or very good condition tracks only. Maximum puncture resistance but lightest weight. See this advert about 5 different tyres, I do not want the new tyres specifically for e-bikes. I need four so do nt want to order the wrong ones.

Schwalbe Marathon Plus 26" for road use are in the standard form as on THIS LINK.

They don't appear to make the more rugged tread Tour version in 26".

Puncture resistance and weight have an inverse relationship. The more of one, the less of the other. According to the rolling resistance tests 26 x 1.75 gives the best combination of all characteristics. 26 x 1.95 gives the best puncture protection and comfort, with slight penalties on weight and rolling resistance.
