Review on SILCA Latex Bike Inner Tube for 24-30mm Tires by Shigg Bigbee

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A brand new tube exploded, a tire exploded off a wheel. Never had to ride it. (Revised)

Brand new pipe explodes, tire explodes off wheel. Disappointed with $15 got another installed and it held air and seems fine. These pipes appear to have a quality control issue. If you get a bad one out of four, want to replace it, send it back to Revain for a refund. Silka contacted me, exchanged the handset straight away, but I also decided it was a "dumb user" error during installation. I installed two extra Silca-Latex tubes with Specialized Turbo Cotton 26mm tires and it was great, even on my bad potholed city streets. GREAT customer service to replace blown tubes. Will always be a customer.

Pros
  • Cycling
Cons
  • Very Expensive
