Review on 🚴 Optimized 48mm Presta Valve Bicycle Tube by Goodyear by Ryan Bennett

Revainrating 2 out of 5

There is no trust in these tubes.

I bought them for parts in February. I didn't have to use it until July, it rolled around my tail bag. Tuesday I had to install because I had a flat tire while driving and the old pipe had already been patched a couple of times. I rode it 2 miles home and a few days later I rode another 10 miles. the next day was ok. There was a hole in the rim of the tube. My rims are tubeless ready, I checked the cause of the puncture but couldn't find it. I sanded it down and let it dry overnight. I went to get a newly repaired tire with a whopping 12 miles of use and it started leaking when I hit 35psi. even before my tire was on the rim. I found that it had failed in the same spot as the first hole further down the tube, about 2mm from the rim side seam. Installed another tube and it survived my 12 mile trip and got tired of breaking down all the time.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • So-so
