Date Reviewed: July 16, 2004 | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Price Paid: |
$15.00 | | Purchased At: | Pricepoint.com | | Strengths: | made for bigger wider tires over 2.3. Hold pressure pretty good and don't have to inflate them EVERYTIME you go out. I use IRC Kujo DH tires with the pinch resistant foam and so far have never had a pinch flat, and i abuse my wheels/tires pretty bad. | | Weaknesses: | little heavier than other brands but hey, its made for DH tires. | | Similar Products Used: | bell with slime | | Bike Setup: | Motobecane 500HT, IRC Kujo DH tires, Shimano derailers/shifters, Easton EA50 stem/handlebars, ODI ruffian lock-on grips, disk brakes, 04 Dirt Jumper III, M-wings saddle | | Bottom Line: | These are made for DH use so they are barely a little heavier. I've used them with IRC kujo tires for 3 months and no pinch flats at all with constant abuse.They hold tube pressure pretty well so you don't have to worry about refilling them EVERYTIME you go out for a ride. They are specifically designed for bigger/wide tires, 2.3-2.7. Trust me when i say they are worth it. My tires have the pinch resistant foam so that may explain the no flats but the tubes keep my tires hard and strong. Good investment. great for DH,DJ,FR and even XC. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$17.00 | | Purchased At: | Revolution | | Strengths: | Big and "burly" | | Weaknesses: | It popped too soon. | | Similar Products Used: | just about every DH tube on the market | | Bike Setup: | 03 Stinky with 03 Jr. T, MRP bashguard/ chain tensor | | Bottom Line: | This tube got pinch flats way too soon. Over simple rock gardens it went flat, and over small 6ft drops. For the weight I would have expected it to last longer | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$12.00 | | Purchased At: | Buckingham bikes | | Strengths: | I bourght this around 3 months ago, and i havent had A puncture yet! I can ride hard, with no problems, yet trust my back-end. | | Weaknesses: | A bit heavy, but its a dh tube, not light xc. | | Similar Products Used: | none really. | | Bottom Line: | Ive got an intense dh 2.35 tire f+b, whith this stuff by slime which goes inbetween the tire and the tube. it adds on a bit of weight but i aint no weak guy who needs a super light bike that feels like it could break under pedeling. If you do dh, trials or jumpind, and you want the best, go for these. You do get a lotta rubber for the money (and believe me, thats a lot of rubber). | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
