MichelinA1 Airstop Tube(Return to Product Page)

These are great tire tubes that last. They hold air a lot longer than other tubes. I had a Specialized tube in one wheel and a Michelin A1 Airstop in the other. The Specialized tube would lose air after a few weeks without use, while the Michelin would still be at the original inflation level.

Used continental before and had too many flats, no flats since I changed to Michelin.

I love this tube compared to factory originals. Stem is solid, not flimsy. It works well with my pump.

While these tubes are not cheap, they are they only tubes I have used for the past ten years that have not had problems. Excellent quality, they come in two presta valve lengths, and the smooth presta barrel is easy on air pump rubber gaskets. I typically buy these in quantity from biketiresdirect.com to get a volume discount as well as get my order up to $100 to qualify for free shipping. My wife and I ride many miles, and are regular long-time customers of biketiresdirect.com (yep - a shameless plug!). Make sure to become a VIP member to get ten percent of your order back on the next order - it keeps me coming back.

This tube seems to be true to size and has held up well.

I am using it in a road bike riding using a hwy road tires hold great to the floor

and the tubes fell great smooth and flexible

Picked up a metal sliver 20 x .5 mm. Didn't notice it on the ride, but the tire was down to 60 lbs pressure (from 110) the next morning

purchased two and both had flats in first 10 days

This is my favorite tube and resides on all of our bikes. I like the non-threaded stem since it doesn't damage the pump head seal. Although I had flats, I never experienced a faulty valve stem. Great price at BikeTiresDirect.

Great training tube, I' ve had no problems and less than normal flats running this through the summer

This tube last well and have never had a leak at the stem. Worth the money!

This is a very good quality product

This is simply a great tube because of the smooth,threadless valve that comes in many sizes. Good for frame - fit hand pumps. Won't destroy the gasket in the chuck. Light and supple.

Good all around road tube for most everything I do for long training rides.

always my prefered ones. relaible and easy toadjust to the pumps

I like 'em. Obviously a quality product. Can't go wrong choosing these.

Nice weight tube with good valve at a very competitive price

I've been using these now for about 3 years and have had good luck with them. Whenever I do get a flat they are easy to change & the 40mm valve stem is perfect for my wheels.

my basic road tube, light, flexible pretty good life. smooth stem great on pumps.

a great choice for everyday riding that helps with flat resistance, and can run about a week without having to pump it up. Slightly heavier than racing clincher tubes, but the increase in reliability and reduced maintenance is a plus.
