Vittoria Latex Tube

Latex is significantly more elastic than butyl rubber, which allows the tube to deform more easily over road imperfections. This results in a smoother, more supple ride quality and lower rolling resistance, making it a popular choice for performance-focused cyclists.

These tubes are specifically designed for 700c tires with a width between 19mm and 23mm. Please check the sidewall of your current tires to ensure they fall within this range before purchasing.

Yes, latex is naturally more porous than butyl rubber, meaning air will permeate through the material faster. You should expect to top off your tire pressure before every ride to maintain optimal performance.

Latex tubes are more delicate than butyl tubes and can be easily pinched during installation. Use a small amount of talcum powder on the tube to help it seat properly, and be extra careful to ensure the tube isn't caught between the tire bead and the rim.

These tubes feature a 48mm Presta valve. This length is standard for many shallow-to-mid-depth road rims, but you should measure your rim depth to ensure the valve stem is long enough to clear the rim bed for your pump head.
