Review on ๐Ÿšด Enhance Cycling Performance with MICHELIN A3 Protek Max Inner Tube - 28 inches by Wendell Chapman

Revainrating 4 out of 5

1/16 inch limit? for tires and tubes

How big is the flat tire? I ran over a piece of glass, causing a thin gap of about 1/16 inch in the tube. Easy to find as the green sealant was leaking in place but didn't stop the leak. I tried for many hours slowly inflating with the hose hanging down so the leak was down to allow the sealant to flow into the area by gravity, but the leak didn't stop. I would probably buy again as I've been riding for 3 months with no issues compared to almost a weekly tube/replacement patch of cheap Bell tubes from Walmart stock. The next step would probably be to add a RhinoDillo type piercing band between the tube and the tire or a heavier tire.

Pros
  • cycling
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
