Tubes and Repairs ~

 

Inner TUBES

 

Tufo Tubular Gluing Tape ~

Use instead of glue!

No mess, no fuss! Roll this double sided tape onto your clean rim (carbon or tubular), peal off the red protective foil then install your tubular tire. Proper tire-rim bond will be achieved after a ride of a few yards.

Each roll is enough for one 700c or 650c tire. You'll need 2 for a pair of wheels.         Add to CART

*This tape was designed by Tufo for Tufo tires. Function with other makes of tires has not been verified by Tufo. As in all glue applications, adhesion should be carefully checked by fully pressing all around the inflated tire to verify solid adhesion. Important, do this test before each ride. 

 

BBB Valve Extension ~

Most current wheel rims are deeper than traditional rims. In order to use a standard tube on these rims you'll need a valve extender. This is a high quality aluminum alloy valve extender suitable for use on these deeper rims including carbon fiber. Length is 50mm (2"). Color is black. Screw it onto the original presta valve and away you go!

Qty:   BBB valve extension, 50mm                        $4.99

Inner Tubes ~

Vittoria Ultralite tubes ~   

These are Vittoria's finest tubes, that means they are the best you can get. Just .9mm thick, they are very light (85 grams) and very supple. Because they are so thin and supple, they bend around objects rather than puncture. Plus, the valves are of much higher quality than competing tubes. We find them to be a perfect blend: great ride, extra light, and hassle free. This version with 51mm long valves is perfect for deep alloy rims like Campy Eurus or Mavic Ksyrium, etc Fits 700c road tires with widths of 18-23mm .... $8.99 each   Add to CART 

 

Gommitalia Road ~

Value priced butyl tube with consistent quality and dependable valves. For 700c road clincher tires with widths of 18-23mm. 48mm valve is long enough for deeper alloy rims like Campagnolo Zonda and Mavic Ksyrium. Weight is 109 grams .... $6.99 each    Add to CART

 

Torelli Extra Long Valve road ~

A very light and supple butyl tube with an extremely long valve (80mm) to fit very deep carbon clincher rims. Much nicer than using valve extensions. Fits all 700c road tires with widths of 18-25mm. Includes packet of talc for pinch free installation. Weight is 99 grams ... $11.99     Add to CART
