Product Details
The Vittoria Competition Latex Road Tube is lightweight and perfect for race day or everyday cycling. Its latex construction reduces rolling resistance by a few watts, enhancing speed and acceleration, while saving nearly 75g compared to butyl tubes. The tubes also feature removable valve cores for extenders and sealant, and their elasticity improves puncture resistance to pinch flats.
However, it is important to note that most major manufacturers advise against using latex tubes with carbon clincher rims due to the higher heat generated by carbon brake surfaces, which can cause latex tubes to burst. Always use butyl tubes with carbon clincher rims.
