I ordered the wrong thing. The return process was quick and easy. I received the items I wanted in new condition. I would shop here again...

Excellent tubes!

I live in an area where goat heads cover most of the land. Theyre so bad out here, theyve ruined several garden hoses... It seems like Ive tried every flat prevention product known to man, but they never stopped goat head punctures. So, I searched online and found these 3.5mm thick tubes from Kenda and figured Id give them a try. When I received the tubes, I was amazed by how large and heavy the box was. You dont really realize how thick this tube is until you actually feel it. It makes those "thorn resistant" tubes you buy locally seem like a joke...

Installation was a breeze because they are so thick, its very hard to wind up pinching them. Ive been riding on them for two weeks now, and theyre still at the 75 PSI I put in them the day I installed them. Im extremely pleased. Im sure the pros would complain about the weight they add, but I dont care, I just want a wheel that rolls!

BTW, I believe slime sells this exact same tube (same specs, same size box) under their name with slime sealant pre-installed for double the price. Just get the Kenda tubes and add your own sealant, its much cheaper. But I dont even think you need it!
