Slime Smart Tube Schrader Valve Bicycle Tube (26 x 1.75-2.125) Reviews
| 76 of 80 people found the following review helpful  Barely sufficient, many drawbacks, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Slime Smart Tube Schrader Valve Bicycle Tube (26 x 1.75-2.125) (Sports) I'm a cyclist who predominantly bikes roads with a mountain bike. I do not drive, so cycling is my way of transportation -- that means ~25 years of biking!I've used these tubes over the past 8 months. I purchased 4 tubes, and as of yesterday I'm completely out. There are a lot of negatives to these tubes, but they do provide one positive. The negatives first: * Easily punctured, probably due to cheap rubber being used for the tubes themselves. My destinations are very close (within 1-2 miles at most), and mostly paved streets, as well as a community bike/jogging trail and a park. The latter two mean thorns! * Sufficient for small punctures, e.g. thin pieces of glass or metal, and (if you're lucky) thorns. The smaller the hole, the better chance it is these tubes will work for you. These won't work for metal shards that dig into your tire/tube in a straight like (e.g. a razor), or pinch flats. * Incredibly messy when punctured while...

I was sorely disappointed. I'm not sure why, but I have had several flats on every bike I've put these on. I haven't treated them roughly - I just ride to school and back, about a mile each way. I keep the bikes outside, but I'm not sure what difference that would make. The tubes appear to be particularly vulnerable around the valve, and when something goes wrong smelly green stuff gets oozes out around the valve.In short: try something else! This is a great idea but has been horribly executed by the Slime guys. 17 of 21 people found the following review helpful  SLIMED tubes and a MUST, By This review is from: Slime Smart Tube Schrader Valve Bicycle Tube (26 x 1.75-2.125) (Sports) Amazing how many folks buy a bike and complain when the factory tubes go flat. BUY these things!!! THEY WORK!!! Don't leave home without them! I have seen significant punctures sealed or slowed by the glue compound in these things. Just remember..when you add air or check your pressure...to rotate the air valve to the upside position..(10-2)..so the slime compound doesn't foul your air valves. NO bike should be without them. Highly recommended. |
