Thick, heavy tube

I had a problem with my Mongoose XR-200 with flat tires. I drive a lot in the country and drive through thorn bushes and the regular cameras just can't take it. So far this has served the purpose as this tube now has over 50 miles (at the time of this review) of plate free service. I used protective inserts between the tire and tube and that didn't seem to stop some of the spikes from popping out. Slime will seal the holes well, but over time the tube will become useless. Let's see how well…

However, I felt that this product is not the right choice for me where a low star rating would tell others that it is not for them. positive moment. This tube really saved me. A few weeks ago I rode Thunder Mountain near Bryce Canyon. My…

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…

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
