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.
Features:
700c Road Tubes feature removable Presta valve cores for modern road wheels
Available in 18-28, 28-32, and 32-47mm width ranges
Available in 40, 50, and 60mm stem lengths

High quality tube
Good quality tube for my 700x38C hybrid tires. Better construction than the cheaper mass market tubes, especially in the Presta valve. Seems to hold air pressure well between rides.

Great tube
I bought two of these tubes a little over a year ago for my 2004 Trek7700 hybrid bicycle. I use the bicycle three or four times a week. The tubes hold pressure very well, I give my tires a squeeze test before each ride and have never noticed a drop in pressure. My only gauge is on my floor pump and I have never noticed a drop in pressure there either although this isn’t a very accurate measurement.
My favorite feature is the clear dust cap on the valve stem, very classy looking. I’d get these again.

They hold air!
Well my headline is an attempt at humor. The tubes do what they are supposed to do, keep my tires full of air. If Schwalbe tubes are as tough as their marathon tires, then these would be awesome. I honestly lose of what brand of tube I'm looking at while I fix a flat. The tire itself is the number one defender of the integrity against a flat.

The valve stem is much too long plus it doesn't seat correctly in the rim.
I bought these tubes to use with replacement tires purchased at the same time. The first thing I noticed was how long the valve stem was relative to the tubes I was replacing. My fault for not checking the length prior to purchase since I had assumed this was a fairly standard measurement. The second thing I noticed was they didn't fit well in the rim. The stem is not threaded its entire length which meant the nut could not be tightened down to the rim. I used a second nut on the inside but this means a good portion of the stem is pushing into the tube and tire. This seems to work but I wonder if this will result in a blow out or puncture. A back injury has prevented me for any serious road testing to date.

Possibly the best tube I've ever purchased.
Tubes are usually just tubes. Boring hoops of butyl rubber with a valve in it. The Schwalbe tube has the best designed valve I've seen in ~30 years of riding Presta valved bikes. It seems to be such a simple thing, but the taper at the base should help reduce the risk of having the valve rip out of the tube. I haven't been able to tell if it will last very long, but if the rest of the tube is as well designed and built as the valve, it should be a good one.

Best Bike Tube
I have used many different brands of bike tubes over the years. These are at the top of my list for overall quality and they do hold air pressure for longer that other tubes I�ve used.

My go-to road tube (2021)
These are great all-around tubes, and I've had only positive outcomes with them. A bit more costly than some others, but price is discounted if you buy them with tires.

Not just a ho hum tube
Reviewing a butyl tube, is kind of like rating toilet paper. When it is better than average, it is noticeable! When I opened these tubes, I definitely noticed some attention to detail that other tubes do not include. So far, they are holding up well....

This have proved reliable. And at 50mm the stem is the right length -- not too short, not too long.

Not all tubes are created equal
A while back I bought some tubes on sale at BTD. The quality was so poor that I actually took the tubes to a bike store to make sure I was seeing what I was seeing. The tubes were so oversized in length that there was no way to stuff it into the tire. The Schwalbes are the correct size and they hold air really well. And yes BTD took care of me.

maintains pressure longer
I gave up on most other brands for tubes because of problems with failing valve stems, slow leaks, and blowouts. These tubes are bomb proof and hold pressure for over a week without noticeable loss of pressure. Worth the slightly heavier weight for those long rides on remote rural roads full of hazards and debris.
