Tubes

Inner tubes come in various materials, each offering different benefits. Butyl is the most common, known for its durability and good air retention. TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) is lighter and more flexible, providing lower rolling resistance and better puncture protection. Weight varies, with TPU tubes generally being lighter than butyl tubes. Puncture protection can be enhanced with features like thicker walls or specialized coatings, reducing the likelihood of flats. Choosing the right inner tube involves balancing these factors to match your riding needs and preferences.
