Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Biketube Brand 700c Bicycle Inner Tubes - Value Pack of 3 - Includes TubeSock and Sticker - Choose Your Size by Jim Roberts

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Time will tell

The packaging is beautiful Nice little tire storage bag but it falls into the "do you really need it?" category. Now for the big question: Before installing, I pumped some air into the hoses to make sure they held air. It immediately became clear that the thickness of butyl rubber is not the same. Some parts of the tube bulged like a snake that has just had a hearty meal, while other parts retained their original shape. A more expensive tube inflates at the same rate over the entire circumference. Does it matter if it's built into a tire? I do not know. I've inflated and ridden them to 100psi and they hold that pressure for at least 24 hours with no issues. Are some areas more prone to punctures because the rubber is thinner? Again, I don't know. I will ride them for one season and then write a review.

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Doubt
