Review on 🚲 Sunlite Bicycle Tube 12.5 x 2.25 (1.75) with 70° Angled SCHRADER Valve by Gary Hall

The valve is not clearly visible in the photos. The valve is clearly bent, but the direction is not straight. In other words, it doesn't make a 90 degree angle with the pipe when viewed from above, so it doesn't protrude as much as you might expect. The box says Sunlite (as in the photo) but in fact the tube is marked by Kenda. I used it on a Bugaboo Frog where the original tube and tire was also Kenda so that seems like a good sign. I was concerned it might be some sort of custom size, but both new and original tubes have sizes clearly marked. If you are unsure if this tube is for you, check the tire first or take out your old tube and see what it says on it. In my case they were identical except the new one has the valve at an angle that is much easier to access. One issue that I didn't anticipate is related to the wheel itself that I put it on. The wheel is made of thick plastic and the valve hole is not just a hole but a small tube. If the valve were straight it would be easy to thread through. However, due to the curved valve, this part proved difficult. When installing, make sure that the tube is not pinched under the tire rim. After pumping up some air, pump it around a bit to make sure it's all the way into the tire.
