Parts Tubolito Tubo MTB Tube

Sick of having to carry around a big, bulky, heavy spare tube in case you have a blowout on the trails? Well, Tubolito is here with the perfect solution! These ultralight and extra-durable tubes are manufactured from a special thermoplastic elastomer that was originally developed for use in speaker cones of all things. They are far less bulky, and more puncture resistant than standard butyl inner tubes and can easily be slipped into a pocket or strapped to your bike without taking up too much space. 

Of course, they are also an excellent choice if you still prefer to run tubes and they’ll cut down a heap of rotating mass while providing extra protection against punctures.

Who’s this item for: These tubes are the perfect choice for anyone wanting a lightweight spare to carry around or use to replace the heavy butyl tubes in their tyres.

Removable valve core: Yes, these tubes use Presta valves with a removable core.
