Escapa presentsthe Tubolito S BMX Tube 20 Schrader 40mm, the ultimate upgrade for your BMX if you’re looking for maximum weight reduction and increased agility. Enjoy faster starts, smoother jumps, and the peace of mind that comes with a nearly imperceptible spare tube—all with improved puncture resistance compared to butyl.
Features:
- Valve: 40mm Schrader (AV) valve. The Schrader valve (also known as an American or car valve) is a wider type of valve, common on many BMX bikes, that makes it easier to inflate with car pumps.
- Material: Made from a high-tech thermoplastic elastomer (TPU). This material is extremely durable and allows for much thinner and lighter tube walls than butyl.
Key Benefits:
- Extremely Lightweight: S-Tubo tubes are the lightest in the Tubolito range, weighing around 23 grams for this 20-inch BMX version. This represents a drastic weight reduction (up to 70–80%) compared to standard butyl tubes, which dramatically improves the bike’s acceleration and agility.
- Ultra-Compact: Its material and design allow it to fold down to an extremely small size, taking up minimal space. This makes it ideal for carrying as a spare without even noticing it’s there.
- Improved Puncture Resistance: Despite their extreme lightness and thinness, Tubolito tubes offer puncture resistance that surpasses that of conventional butyl tubes, thanks to the inherent strength of TPU.
- Low Rolling Resistance: The advanced material and optimized construction contribute to lower rolling resistance, which translates to greater pedaling efficiency and a feeling of increased speed.
