MichelinA1 Airstop Tube(Return to Product Page)

I can use this tube on my road bike and also on my hybrid for shorter rides.

It is a good compromise that provides quality at a great price.

the tube fit well and is a high quality

Been running these tubes for a few months with no problems. They seem well built with very good presta valves. Everything you would expect from Michelin.

Great air retention properties.

As always, michelin tubes are worth the money. Great product!

use on 700 series rim (27) -bike is primary transportation and often carry 70 lbs loads in two saddle bags over rear wheel and basket over front wheel

Reliable tube for 23mm tires. Not threaded so doesn't include a nut but that's not really needed anyway. Probably not the lightest tube but that means it won't puncture so easily. Coolest thing is it is smooth so easy to put the pump in and off.

Solid tubes at a good price. I have not had issues with quality.

I like these tubes. They last a long time and I like the smooth stem.

I use these for training and racing and love them.

This product did not make acceptable pancakes, and had a distinctively rubbery taste no matter how much syrup I used. As a last resort I tried putting it inside the tires of my bicycle, and was delighted to find that it did a perfectly serviceable job of retaining air at 120 psi, at the most reasonable cost I could find on the interwebs. And that is all that I look for in this sort of product.

Great value on sale price.

The Airstop tube is a good value for its dependability. I haven't had problems of it tearing at the stem, which seem to be the weak link with some other tubes. I get the expected mileage, with fewer flats than with some of the other tubes.

I use these for my recreational rides. Very few failures. they are better than average at keeping the pressure.

A bike tube is a bike tube right? Well maybe, I have used many brands and for some reason keep coming back to Michelin A1 Airstop Tubes. I am using them with my

Michelin Pro4 Service Course Tires. About 400 miles on them so far no flats or problems...

rails to trails riding 120miwk

Retains air like none other. Best I've used. Highly recommended.

A tube is a tube, until you ride enough over a number of years to experience valvetube separations, tube seam failures, and other similar issues. Both the A1 and the A1B1 tube from Michelin are very reliable and do not have these 'quality control' sort of issues. These are awesome tubes and we should all stock up at the BTD sale price. Note that these CAN be patched, but like all small tubes, they can be a bit of a challenge. Try this, use a suitably small patch, such as the Rema F0-P, 16mm patch (just go ahead and buy 100 of them...will last you for a few years), and be sure to properly clean and buff the tube...I use a spritz of alcohol before and after buffing with sandpaper-works like a charm. Also, be sure to wait until the glue is completely dry, before you applying the patch with a high degree of force. Anyway, a great tube, this Michelin.

I use the 40mm valve stem for my standard wheels. Performs as expected.

Put them in no problems at all
