  • Make GP5000's even faster
Size: 700 x 25-28c
Yes, they'll lose air. I toured with these and found myself down 20 psi every morning of the tour. I'd pump them up to 100 psi and be down to 80 again by the next morning. With a good pump, this is not a big deal. Just plan on pumping them up every day that you ride. I don't ride often enough for that to be an ordeal, and even if I rode everyday, I'd just have my compressor ready to fill them. So why are they worth pumping up every day? They're light. I've read poly tubes are even lighter. I put them in a pair of GP5000 and they really roll. They're also reported to have low rolling resistance, maybe a couple watts lower than butyl. No flats after a couple hundred miles, even a few miles of gravel. If they keep going like this, I might stick with them over butyl -- and I just do recreational touring -- hey, why pump harder than you have to? It adds up over the long haul. Update: The front tube developed a leak at about 250 miles. There is a small crack about half a millimeter on the latex on the inner circumference of the tube. This would be against the Velox Fond de Jante rim tape, so not a puncture and not a pinch flat either. It would seem this latex is not that durable. I can patch it with another piece of latex and glue, but until I get around to it, I've put in a butyl tube -- all the LBS had in stock. ... show more

  • more comfortable ride
Size: 700 x 25-28c
Latex tubes have their ups and downs, just like butyl tubes, or even going tubeless. Latex tubes are more fragile, you have to be very careful installing them so that you don't somehow accidentally tear the tube with a tire lever, you want to make sure it doesn't get stuck between the bead of the tire and rim. So make sure you put a small amount of air into the tube to give it shape before installing it. The biggest plus that you will feel with latex is that it will feel like you are riding with about 30 psi less air, it will have a softer feel to it making the ride more comfortable. The other thing is that people will say is how much faster their bike goes, while it has been shown in tests that a bike with latex tubes uses about 7.5 watts less energy, those 7.5 watts you will feel, but it's not vastly better, just slightly better. A false rumor spread about how much more flat resistant a latex tube is vs a butyl tube is a lie spread by marketing where a company takes a tube and stretches over a broken bottle and it doesn't rip, while that is true what they did, but it was misleading to say that once the tube is in a tire blown to 80 to 110 psi that will cause the same effect when something tries to puncture it. No. What happens is the tube is very tight and pressing tightly against the inside of the tire when under pressure, just like a butyl tube is, there is no give should something enter the tire and hit the tube, so one will go poof just as easily as the other. Easy to install if you are familiar with installing tubes. Durability can be an issue if you don't install it correctly and carefully. Value for the money, I think they overcharge for these types of tubes, including the new TPU tubes which I would only give them a 1 star for value for the money if I was rating those, plus, TPU tubes do not have a long useful life. ... show more

  • Best bang for your buck - for speed
Size: 700 x 25-28c
I've had great luck with these tubes. I just had my first flat after three years of riding them, and that was because of hitting a huge bump at high speed. There are some pros and some cons, so you have to know what you are getting into if considering the purchase. Cons: they take more attention to detail while installing, after the tire is back on the rim, add just a touch more air and look to make sure the tube is inside all the way around both side. 2nd con is that they don't hold air pressure for more than 12-24 hours. Even with butyl I'd add anyway so no bigger for me. Pros: they are faster, they ride softer, and I'd say similar puncture resistance to butyl. A few pics show bulging when putting air in them outside a tire, that is not a defect, they obviously can't do that when properly installed inside a tire/wheel. I used an old latex tube to repair another one, and now I have a lifetime of patch material. I plan to keep using these in the foreseeable future. ... show more

  • Be careful ........................
Size: 700 x 30/38
You would think a company with Victoria's reputation could get a valve stem and core right. You know, no LEAKS! I tried replacing both cores and they still they leak, within a few minutes both tires were flat. You could feel the air leaking from the stem. I screwed up and waited till I received my new bike to install the new tires and with Victoria latex tubes. And now my window to return has closed and can not return the faulty tubes. ... show more

  • Lightweight
Size: 700 x 25-28c
Lighter than butyl but not as light as PV. Installed front and rear tubes with new tires. Unfortunately the rear tube blew up on my second use. Fortunately it was while I was inflating it. The rim tape had moved away from a spoke hole and it went right through.

  • Prep work is key
Size: 700 x 25-28c
Latex tubes are a fantastic, cheap upgrade offering superior ride quality with lowered rolling resistance. They are also very easy to patch with another scrap latex tube and rubber cement. BUT you must make sure your rim tape is top quality. Repeat after me…. I will install Velox rim tape before I use latex tubes. Also tubes must be installed with care with no tire irons. Please watch a how to install latex tube video if you are new to latex. They are pinch prone. Do not use for spares. Carry regular tubes for flats out on the road. And yes you are going to pump, a tad, the tires before each ride…. But if you’re considering latex you all about correct pressure anyways ... show more

  • Lightweight but lose air fast.

They are lightweight but will lose 50% air pressure within a day or so.

  • The answer is clear
Size: 700 x 25-28c
I've used these tubes now for many thousands of miles and there is no comparison. Just got my first flat in many, many months and have probably had about 50% less flats than I had with butyl. They are much faster and more puncture resistant than butyl, don't cause the headaches and messes of tubeless, make for a more supple ride. The only real complaint I can see from someone is needing to inflate the tires more often, but you probably should be before each ride anyways. If you ride daily, you can go two days in a row without inflating unless you keep low pressure to begin with. ... show more
