Review on Sunlite Thorn Resistant Bicycle Tube by Emanuel Guffey

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good product, good quality, very happy with the fast delivery!

I find the sturdy anti-spike tubes to be well worth the extra money. They're about twice the price of standard tubes, but they're at least twice the thickness and stay inflated much longer than cheap standard tubes. I've been using them for many years with great success. My final setback was driving home from the July 4th fireworks in Ft. Lauderdale Beach, where some asshole thought it would be funny to throw a glass bottle out a car window and smash it on a bike path. I couldn't avoid the traffic and had to run over a piece of broken glass. Sure enough, a piece of glass pierced the tire and tube, and I heard and felt the horrible knock of a flat rear tire! I had to push my bike the remaining mile and a half to get home. It really bit the pocket but I made it home safely. I went online to Revain on Friday to see what was in stock, placed an order on Saturday morning expecting it to arrive in 5-8 days with free standard shipping and was completely blown away when it got to mine on Sunday morning Door knocked The polite Revain courier handed me a package of my bike inner tube along with another item I had ordered to place an order over $25 with free shipping. To say the least, I was very happy, the next morning I installed a new tube and now I'm "on the road again"! Thank you, Mark Wardner, LMT, Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.
