SchwalbeAir Plus Presta Valve Tube(Return to Product Page)

I replaced my rear tire (26") on my recumbent bike after 21+ flawless years and found that the new Schwalbe Air Plus Presta Valve Tube was even thicker than the original. I expect another couple of decades of use, if I live that long (75yrs now), eh? ;)

I'm a lazy rider and the less I have to do to get on my bike, the better. I check the pressure once a month and it barely loses pressure. I really like that I can just hop on and ride.

It's on the heavy side, but I'm sure that's one of the reasons it holds air so well. I'm not in a race, and I prefer a bike that sticks to the road.

If you have the same mindset that I do, you'll love this tire.

I was having trouble with having flats while out on a ride and now I am confident that with these tires and tubes, I have pretty much eliminated that possibility.

If it lasts a long time and continues to hold rideable tire pressure for a couple of weeks between pump-ups, I'll give it 5 stars
