Novara Presta Tube Lite Long - 700 x 18 - 23 Review

Prone to Flats!

"I'm a big REI fan, but these tubes are poorly made. I have gone through 3 in a week, all with leaks where the stem sealed to the tube. No punctures, just leaks at the seal. Fortunately, there were no catastrophic flats, or downhill wobblies. "

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Not a good buy

★☆☆☆☆
1.0

    Pros

  • None

    Cons

  • Difficult To Regulate
  • Punctures Easily

    Best Uses

  • Road Biking
 

"The valves on these tubes stick and are difficult to inflate - particularly with a CO2 cartridge. The tubes also puncture easily and the valve stem separates from the tube.

At one time, Novara made a good tube, but lately not so. "

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
