The Classic Presta Tube — There When You Need It
The Schwalbe 700c Presta Road Tube is an expertly crafted butyl tube designed for durability and reliability. Schwalbe understands that the key to a successful ride lies, fundamentally, on the shoulders of the tubes. Schwalbe's manufacture process creates an extremely pure rubber compound and includes testing and inspection of each and every tube to verify performance. The result is a high quality tube that retains more air over time, requiring less frequent inflation.

Reviews
Kinda like TP, you'll pretty much always need it. I always keep a few extra tubes in my bike toolbox, well, because it's easier and in my opinion, better to replace flats with new tubes. I see it as cheap insurance. These don't disappoint and since after installing with my new tires they have held the air pressure nicely. I waited to review these until they've been installed for awhile and as I stated, they don't disappoint. I would and will buy again
The inner tubes are the same high quality that I've come to expect from Schwalbe. From their indestructible Marathon Plus tires to now these quality inner tubes, Schwalbe has cornered the market for all of my bike touring needs!
These seem to be a solid product but like all tubes they are at the mercy of the type of tire you ride with and the condition of the roads you travel. If you aren't ready for the time and expense of converting to tubeless tires I think these will keep you rolling.
When the tubes were advertised it was said they were great at holding air pressure for long periods of time. Well its true. I only air mine up every four to five days and could probably go longer if I wanted to push it. Well made product.
I purchased these Schwalbe tubes while on sale as they were less expensive than the brand of tubes I usually use for my road bikes. So far so good and don't have any issues to report.
These seem fine, but I use a frame pump that screws onto the valve, and when unscrewing, the removable core comes with it. Nowhere that I see does the spec say that these have removable cores ....
I only bought these at a reduced price knowing I�ll need some in the future. Consistent 108 gr weight which is same as Conti Race tubes. I�m spoiled by my dwindling supply of 67 gr extra light Forte tubes that are no longer sold at Performance Bikes. Don�t know why no company can produce light tubes for a reasonably price like Forte did.
These lasted 2 months and about 500 miles, then both went flat from a leak overnight within 2 days of each other.
I found nothing poking through either tire, which I bought new at the same time as the tubes. I've been changing tubes for 25+ years, I don't get pinch flats. I'm used to getting several years and thousands of miles from a tube before I inevitably get an obvious puncture.
So It's always possible I installed them wrong, but just I can't believe I'd screw up both wheels, and for the first time in literally decades. I think these are garbage tubes. Schwalbe has a great reputation for tires (which is why I bought these), it might just be a bad batch, but this is the first and last time I ever buy their tubes.
had no problems with these tubes for many many miles. I had a pinch flat (not the fault of the tube). I patched it and used it for a spare. Later after installing this spare in a tire It held air for only a few hours. I found the cause was a small hole at the base of the presta valve where the tube is reinforced at the edge . Because of the location of this hole there was no way for it to have happened during installation. I checked my other Schwalbe tube with about the same mileage and age and found an identical problem developing at the same spot. I closely examined the wheel and found nothing to have caused this. It is curious that both of the tubes had the same issue in the same exact spot. I replaced the tube with another manufacturer and so far no problem. I love the Marathon tires but a bit leery about the tubes now.
