Tubes for road and trekking bikes - MTBIKER shop

Inner tubes for road and trekking bikes play an important role in rolling. They maintain the air pressure in the tire, thanks to which the tire maintains its shape and load capacity. Here are some factors to consider when choosing a tire:

Inner size: Inner tubes are designed for specific tire sizes. Look for the size marked on the sidewall of your tire. It is usually in the format "700x25c" for road bikes or "28x1.75" for trekking bikes.
Valve type: There are two main types of valves: Presta and Schrader. Road bikes often use Presta valves, which are longer and thinner, while trekking bikes may use Schrader valves, similar to those used on car tires.
Valve length: Make sure the valve length is suitable for your rim. If the valve is too short, it can be difficult to inflate the tire. If it is too long, it may not fit properly or may be prone to damage.
Weight: If you care about bike weight, consider lightweight inner tubes. However, keep in mind that extremely light inner tubes can reduce puncture resistance.

Always have a spare inner tube, pump and tire lever with you while riding. Regardless of tube type. It's a good idea to check your tire pressure regularly to ensure optimal performance and reduce the risk of a puncture.
