Awesome tubes
5I will start using latex tubes consistently there’s a big difference and I’m loving the ride.
Report this reviewNice quality
4First time using a latex inner tube. Firstly they feel a quality product. The feel of the ride feels very smooth. So far so good. Excellent service from Probike Kit 👍

5Go to inner tubes. Smooth, quick and pretty resilient. Good quick delivery and a decent price.
Report this reviewCombined difference of comfort+performance gain is WORTH It
5In brief, forget what you read,if you can apply a continuous layer of talcum powder and be ultra careful to secure the tube in place (took me up to 2 hours to do both for the first time) so do it! so far, almost a 100 Km done, but the difference is surely noticeable with lightweight carbon rims (with basalt braking) though you have to be careful not to brake heavily because they tend to overheat with heavy braking and might just blow. Coupled with a pair of Michelin Pro 4 Service Course 23C, compared to the previous Vittoria Pave 25C with normal Butyl tubes, both weight gain and wattage gain from the lower rolling resistance were clearly felt, also they feel fuzzy grinding against the road, you can feel the ground texture, and hear the wheels deforming I pumped them to 100 PSI/ 92 PSI in average... Pro4 range is 87-120 psi

4So far so good. I air up the tires before every ride, so air migration is no issue. Love the supple feel latex gives to Conti Grand Prix 4000s II's. Lower rolling resistance with an already a fast tire........Good Combination.

5Very impressed with how smooth they are with Vittoria open Corsa tires very very smooth. Good construct.

5With the winter condition, our Canadian road suffer a lot, so if you are a bikker, just like me, you hate a flate tire due to a bump, crack or bad road condition. Each year a put a brand new Micheln A1 Aircomp latex road inner tube and guess what..?no more flate tire!i just love that latex!!

5If you buy ' GOOD ' clinchers & want a smooth, fast ride look no further. Yes they're a bit more expensive than butyl tubes, yes you need to be careful when fitting ( cover the tube in talc is a smart move ), & yes you'll need to pump them up before every ride. But if you can put up with that faff, & find the rite tyre pressure for yourself, you'll have a much smoother enjoyable ride.

5Because of he reviews on latex tubes I bought them with Michelin Pro4 Endurance V2 tires. Since I changed tires and tubes I'm not sure which products get the kudos. The ride is very nice and fast. Cons: because they are very soft; it helps to give them a little air when installing and the generous use of talc. They do lose air faster than butyl tubes. I check and air up daily. Butyl lost about 15-20 PSI and the latex 30-35 PSI. This can be seen as a plus because it would encourage checking tire pressure often. As one of the other reviewers posted I carry a butyl spare.

5Excellent tubes- really an upgrade to your ride quality, even if they do lose pressure more quickly.
