ContinentalRace Light Road Tube(Return to Product Page)

Buy a handful of these when they go on sale. Light weight tube for easy riding or racing. Carry a spare and run these in all my bikes. If you get a thorn or flat these are ok to patch.

I love new tires and tubes! Bike feels and handles better. I'll get over 1500 good, hard miles over smooth and some substantially rough surfaces.

I may be a little lazy, but when I find something that works really well I tend to stop shopping. I've used these tubes with Conti GP4000S tires for many years with great performance and almost never any flats.

Does the job holds pressure nicely and never hurts to loose grams from rotating mass. Have 2 spare as well, recommend.

perfect for road and gravel riding. these are not puncture proof. as for standard tube, ready for action

A tube that I can count on to be reliable over time

This tube is nice middle weight folds up neatly doesn't weight much & isn't fragile when putting in when standing on the side of the road wishing you could hurry up and not be standing on the side of the road go ride!!

Great tube. The one to go with until you go tubeless

I ordered the 60mm stem and they are ideal with the Roval CLX 50s!

I carry 2 because I have 2 tires and I ride some rough roads. But I have found that I given as many away to riders using crappy cheap tube as I've used myself.

Really like Conti tubes. Never had any problems with them. Hold air well.

Great product keeps the pressure almost all week.

Perfect for when you dont want to carry heavy tubes in your jersey pockets.

Bought these to mount with new Continental 5000 tires, and they fit the spec and mounted easily.

Touring and road riding in the city - lots of glass. tires have good puncture resistance yet light weight.

Great tubes at a good price

Nothing too remarkable, other than they work great.

The Continental Race Light Road tube is a fantastic tube and at BikeTiresDirect they are a very reasonable price. The Continental tubes are well made and long lasting for light weight tubes. Multiple rolling resistance tests show that the lightweight butyl tubes are within 2-3 watts as latex, but a lot less expensive. And, butyl tubes are safer to use in carbon clinchers due to their higher heat tolerance. The pressure loss of the Continental Race Light tubes is much better than any latex tube. The Continental Race Light tubes offer a great option for fast riding when the limitations of latex aren't worth the benefits.

Have used these Continental Race light tubes in 700x25 (Michelin) racing and training tires for several years. No problems. Stems work well with screw-on, shop and bike-mounted, pumps (Lezyne.) Sometimes I deflate slightly after ride, sometimes I just leave them at 110 psi. Doesn't seem to make any difference. (Although I still feel, from the old sew-days, that stretched rubber should be allowed to rest after a ride.) I would give it 5-stars except can't see calling any plain-ol' bike tube awesome and a steal. ,-
