These tubes produced a more supple ride with Michelin Mud 2's on Mavic Ksyriums. Can go to lower pressures (around 30ish psi as I weigh 165 lbs) as they seem to be more resistant to pinch flats than butyl tubes. They also don't bleed pressure as quickly as other latex tubes I've tried. All in all, a good product for its intended use. I really like the ride feel and feedback.

I've been riding on my new latex tubes for just over two months now and LOVE them. Max PSI is only 108, so I top them off at 100. I use these on my road bike for my 12 mile commute every day to work. I was averaging between 1-5 flats a month on butyl, I've got two months without a single flat.

Con= I do fill up every morning, but I checked them every morning before I got these too.

Great tire, leaks more, but is MUCH more forgiving.

Best Deals for Challenge Latex Tube

My bike skills are not fine honed enough to benefit from needing to worry about a latex tube. Installed in both tires. I could not distinguish a faster or smoother ride. Front tube blew after 8 miles. Rear tube ran for about 100 miles on several 20-30 mile rides. I changed back to a normal tube before a 100 mile ride so I would not spend the day worrying about a blowout.

Honest reviews on Challenge Latex Tube

the only drawback is that it loses air overnight so if pumping up before every ride is not a problem, these are great.

I like these a lot.

I put them on with Michelin Pro4 tires. Immediately felt cushier and livelier. Not quite the feel of tubular tires, but pretty close. Pumping up tires every time before the ride isn't a problem it is simply a good practice. However, I was told these tubes are better for lighter riders and for alloy wheels, because carbon wheels produces more heat and butyl tubes supposed to handle heat better (who really know?)
