Schwalbe700c Presta Road Tube (2025)(Return to Product Page)

I find these very hi quality tubes - they are my go to tubes when I find them on sale!

I only bought these at a reduced price knowing I'll need some in the future. Consistent 108 gr weight which is same as Conti Race tubes. I'm spoiled by my dwindling supply of 67 gr extra light Forte tubes that are no longer sold at Performance Bikes. Don't know why no company can produce light tubes for a reasonably price like Forte did.

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.

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.

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.

I have found that the Schwalbe tubes are the most dependable.

Installed new tubes and tires on my bicycle. They are the best tires I have ever had.

I usually buy the 32mm tire but thought 'd give these a try because I wanted to install fenders, They worked out well.

I can definitely depend on these tubes. I travel lots of long miles and know I'm okay with these tubes.

This tube holds air very well. I hardly need to put any air in it which is quite surprising to me. On the rides, it has performed very well and I got only one puncture all these times. You only need to be careful to make sure valve core is tight. I feel out of the box, the valve core can be tighter. Overall happy and recommend it.

It's my go to tube as it seems to hold air better and a good puncture resistance.

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....

Works well. Like the longer valve stems.

I'm running tubeless in two bikes now, but always carry a tube for an emergency. Sometimes faster then trying to fix a tubeless (always good to try a Stan's dart first). Good price, prompt shipping.

having had pinch flats on long rides before, we are hyper vigilant about checking our tire pressure before starting out on our tandem. these tubes so far seem to deliver reliably- with less air pressure loss when we check.

A good sturdy tube for all around riding, at a good price point for a good brand

Works well. Sometimes the valve stem needs to be tightened. Typically, tighten the stem before installing.

Very good tube. I'm tired of settling for a tube in a pinch from a box store that never last. You'd think a tube is a tube, but they aren't. These have been reliable with little issues

With many tubes you need to check your air pressure daily, with these tubes I can go several days without a change of pressure.

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.
