Review: Faster, lighter, more puncture resistant...no gunge, but needs installation with care - Based on rolling resistance cyclings studies a good inner - latex or tpu + a supple fast tyre will be as near as damn it as fast as similar tubeless. Based on my experience I'd agree.. I've used on mountain bikes and the feel and pace has been good. And perfectly fine on puncture resistance. Because of the lower pressure, I never encountered the installation issues I did at 70-90psi on the road. In use, it's the same on the road. Fast, comfortable and no issues with punctures. There are downsides - they do leak air faster than butyl. (Tpu holds air well). Expect to put air in every few days as a minimum. So to installation your rim tape must be the right size, spec and correctly fitted. I did not get this right and had an unexplained blow out. I traced it back to a spoke hole that was covered, but the tape had domed. I covered the entire rim with an extra layer of electrical tape. There is still doming. This is an issue for failure. What i should have done was strip off all tape. Buy a high pressure rim tape (it must be high pressure). Clean and install it meticulously - no wrinkles no dips, perfect coverage of holes and lapping to the sides. No rough edges or areas for an inner to snag or rub against. On a 15mm rim (yes old road bike), 18mm tape is needed to completely cover the holes and lap up shoulder (but not foul the bead hook). If you look at schwalbes guide, they make it clear if you look closely at the pics. And once you see the diagrams and ompare to your rims you'll see what you need. On mine the holes completely fill the well in the rim base- edge to edge. So without a wide tape there is no security. And with continual use the latex will find a gap and eventually blow. Tpu is apparently even more prone to wrinkles, edges etc.. Now I've found my way there, I'm sure it will be fine, but do bear in mind the swop from butyl to any new format will need a little prep. For comfort and speedy I am happy that's a price worth paying. They are also obviously more expensive than butyl. If you want that improved feel and pace it's probably as cheap an upgrade as it comes.
Review: Great tubes - They do the job perfectly. Fit easily, never had a puncture with these and roll really nicely when fitted.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best inner tubes for road bikes
*by A***R on 30 May 2022*

Originally I was sceptical about making the change from butyl to latex tubes but I needn't have been. People will tell you that latex tubes are fragile and puncture easily but that's all a myth. If you install them correctly they are more puncture resistant than butyl and they weigh significantly less. They key is to dust the inside of your tyre with talc, seat the tyre, inflate the tube slightly, install the tube and then fully seat the tyre. You must then ensure that the tube is not pinched under the tyre bead. Then inflate as normal and you're good to go. They ride smoother than butyl and I have not punctured yet in 3000 km. Suffice to say I'm not going back to butyl and time soon.
