These are the latest and greatest RideNow TPU tubes. I haven't done long term testing yet, however they do seem to hold air pressure longer compared to the old ones. Fingers crossed that they last longer than the other TPU tubes I've tested/used.
So far I haven't found the new TPU with metal composite valve on Ali yet.

Have you used the new RideNow TPU tubes before? Any leaks or thoughts on longevity and durability?

@barryherron5351 Месяц назад

I've just installed the one's with the white plastic valves 65mm, I was dubious about them holding pressure, so far so good. What are your thoughts on the pressure you should be using? I've dropped the pressure down by 15 psi compared to what I would use on a butyl tube.

@henrychungfitness Месяц назад

@@barryherron5351 I use the same pressures as I did in butyl. 90psi for 25mm tires and 80psi for 28mm tires.

@supersucka 3 месяца назад

The best way to prepare tpu is baby powder. Start with the rim bed, followed by the inner carcass of the tyre and some on the tpu. It will prevent the tube from sticking onto any of tyre or rim bed surface. Also the baby powder helps to pull the tyre bead over to rim easier without tyre levers. One thing to note. If you use tpu inner tube, best use a normal clincher folding tyre. The folding bead is softer than tubeless and tubeless ready tyres and the ride quality is way better than the reinforced tubeless tyres. Also normal clincher folding is lighter, more supple and cheaper.

@@veganpotterthevegan that’s a fair point. I guess the reliability isn’t there yet for the TPU tubes compared to butyl tubes. However I don’t see myself going back to butyl even though there are leaks in TPU. The speed and feel is night and day for me 😂

@jetthepanda 3 месяца назад

Pump your tubes up and put them in a bowl of water and move them around slowly. When you find the air bubbles you'll have found the leak. Often it is the valve that fails on these tubes, I've had that problem with the valves on brand new tubes. Some times it fixes itself when you unscrew and screw down the valve.

@henrychungfitness 3 месяца назад

I tried placing it in the bathtub but could really find any bubbles. That’s interesting that unscrewing then rescrewing the valve worked 🤔

@DirtRoadie 3 месяца назад

That is the classic routine, but doesn't work the same for TPU tubes that have microscopic pinhole leaks so small that it can take 20 seconds for a pinhead sized bubble to form from the leaking air. If you are moving the tube and/or expecting a visible stream of bubbles, you simply won't find the leaks. And there can be many such holes.

@eladshitrit 3 месяца назад

I had air leaking out too with several ridenow tubes. You need to realize that in oppose to regular rubber tubes, where if you have a puncture the hole will keep getting bigger and bigger, in TPU it can stay in a micronic level when it is almost impossible to locate with water. Check you tyre very carefully to see if you have something in it that causes that. I had a tiny brake cable thread fragment in mine and it took me ages (and 3 tubes) to realize it

@henrychungfitness 3 месяца назад

Good catch! It’s a mission trying to find those tiny micro punctures and I’ve tried the bathtub method submerging the tube part to check for bubbles. I think so far most of mine have likely been the valve area though.

@TheKb117 2 месяца назад

If that is so, putting some tire sealant in the TPU tube would help in stealing the small holes. Been using some on my rubber inner tubes, no flats so far, and tire deflation when bike is not in use has been largely minimized. Ymmv

@shirtlessGraveler305 Месяц назад

I just installed a pair of gravel versions and the front tube leaks. I’ve submersed in water can’t find anything, but it seems like the valve course don’t come out like traditional the valves do they’re kind of permanently fixed in there. ? I might be wrong but I think I tried to take a valve out and it wouldn’t turn and I don’t want to put seal through the valve plunger because that will just get things clogged up and that’s what I’m trying to avoid. I’m temporarily not riding tubeless for now I’ve removed all the sealant and just want to do tubes because my sealants drying out because I’m not riding it as much I ride my mountain bike a little bit more and my road bike. It’s too much maintenance and work to maintain. Two bikes with sealant in them.

Great Stuff! I prefer these threaded valve stems with nut over the smooth ones even though the weight is higher. What sadly only few manufacturers do is an intermediate size between the road tire size for 32 mm max. and the MTB ones starting from like 1.9 inches. I ride 40 mm Conti Terra Trails on one of my bikes and hope RideNow will update their gravel option with the new valves in the future!

@henrychungfitness 3 месяца назад

I like that the nut helps to keep the valve stem in place so it’s a bit easier to inflate. Might be worth shooting them an email to see if they carry sizes for your 40mm Conti Trails 👍

There are a couple of different TPUs available, but I prefer the slightly heavier ones over the ultra-thin, lightweight options.

@bingbing3464 3 месяца назад

It's actually the same thickness but the difference is at the diameter of the tubes. Heaver tubes supports up to 32c-36c tyres while the lighter ones maxed out at 28c. Arguably you can say it's "thicker" because it is less stretched when inflated.

@FiveMinuteVelo 3 месяца назад

I've used many different brands of TPU tube, and mostly they've been great. However, occasionally I get spontaneous micro punctures as shown here: ru-vid.comzIJehjpwX1o?si=r7QpLBcZD46YlwCg . The good news is the punctures are small and the tire takes several hours to several days to lose enough air to need re-inflating. I should say, most tubes do not exhibit the problem. Some of the tubes are of the new variety and hence they don't seem to have the solved the micro puncture issue. I also don't like the plastic valves as my pump connector keeps slipping off it as I pump the tire up - I end up having to hold it in place. The smooth valve stem surface needs a little bit of texture to give it more grip.
