Silca

Price is in line with most TBU tubes. The ride quality is better than regular tubes. Aluminum treaded valve stems are much better than others on the market. With deeper carbon rims get the longer stems. One patch and alcohol wipe comes with them. Can only patch once. I use a hand pump or air compressor to pump up. Make sure to use the extender hose on the mini compressors. Valves will get hot. Be sure to log in to Silca for information.

As others have mentioned, clogs my stems quickly, does not last very long. I've gone back to primarily using Orange Endurance sealant. I think this would be best used for a big event where you need good sealing for a short period of time. Big fan of other Silca products, think this is one I won't use anymore once I finish.

It's really just a crock pot with a thermostat, temp gauge and chain hanger but it seems well designed and definitely makes waxing a much easier and less messy job. Previously I was using an ultra-cheap crock pot, and it was hard to figure out the right temperature and when to remove the chain so that it got adequately waxed without becoming a big gooey mass as the wax cooled. This product eliminates those problems and is very convenient and easy to use. I bought it on sale at BTD otherwise I probably wouldn't have shelled out the cash, but I think it would be worth the full price especially if you have more than one bike, ride a lot or need to rewax frequently.

First ride of the season and I was washing my bike afterwards. Found a good sized wood splinter sticking out of my tire sidewall (not the usual pin prick like a thorn or something). Never even noticed it during the ride. I pulled it out and it sealed immediately. Amazing stuff.

I also change out my sealant every season so I can see that it's still in good shape from the prior season. Unlike the first gen Silca ultimate sealant which was completely dried out and useless within months.
