Exceptional tube if used in combination with gatorskin tires
These are very durable and light weight tubes that will get a road bike on paved roads to a destination smooth and swiftly. Actually they are the most protective lights I have ever ridden on, and when a rider does suffer a flat, they are very compatible with glue and patch kits. I road on one tube which had suffered three flats with glued on patches for over a thousand miles of riding until a chunk of jagged marble countertop pierced through my gatorskin tire and gashed it big time! These are still the best tubes for road biking.

Quality tube without the added weight
This tube worked great. It has a very small footprint and fit in my saddlebag nicely. It has a very lightweight but quality feel to it.

Best tube period.
I prefer the Continental Light 80 mm preta for my Zipp 404s. Made the mistake of buying a pair of cheap tubes at a bicycle shop at an out of town race and the cheap tube lasted no time at all. Continentals are worth the money.

Rides smooth but not threaded stem
Seems like the 80mm do not have threaded stems so since you don't have that nut to put on, if you're using deep rims, they tend to rattle a little bit. I hear it from time to time if I'm listening. Otherwise a solid tube.

Not Easy to Find in Every Bike Shop...
I was out riding on my Zipp Firecrest 404's one day and flatted. Unfortunately me and my buddies only had a normal (50mm valve) spare tubes and I had lost the extender for the valve stem I got with the wheels. Even a quick trip to the local bike shop that day yielded no long stemmed vales so my ride was over. As soon as I got home I got on Amazon, found these and now I will never be caught without a spare again. In spite of what some commenters have said about these being too flimsy, I have been riding this tube for about 2 months on some fairly bumpy roads and bike trails and it seems to be working out just fine.

Quality of product in question.
Received these inner tubes and went to install them on my bike. Tried to inflate the tube and the tube came with a hole in it already out of the box. The second tube would pump up but my tire pressure gage wouldn't read the pressure in the tube. SO I tried my pump on my second bike and kids bikes and the gage work on those bikes. So it was the tube that was faulty. I wouldn't recommend these tubes.

Very lightweight, prone to pinch flats
Went against my better judgment and bought a conti product based on price and availability alone. My history with all conti products is that they are of good (not great) quality. Then tend to be durable out of the box, but long term reliability has always been a problem with the tires and now the tubes. I talc my tubes to prevent pinch flats, but occasionally after changing one on the road, I neglect to go back and do this and therein lies the problem with this product. The lightness and thinness of these tubes makes them overly susceptible to pinch flats if you aren't 100% diligent about unseating, talc-ing, and reseating a perfectly good tube when you get home after you have changed the flat on the road. I prefer to deal with a bit more bulk in material and weight if I can avoid replacing a tube every 250 miles, which seems to be the sweet spot for these. I get that an ounce of prevention by pre-talc-ing these in a ziplock bag is on me, but there isn't always time for that and unbinding the well-rolled tube and re-rolling it rarely results in a factory-level packaging and you get a bird's nest of tube sticking out of your jersey. I have had far better experience with Rubbers tubes - a bit heavier, but very durable and long lasting, even under user neglect (and they come with a patch kit) ; however these are hard to find and getting expensive.

Continental tubes last forever!
If you have aero wheels, you cannot go wrong with the Continental Light 80mm tube. I usually purchase tubes where the stem is threaded, but I have to admit that I'm a convert for the smooth stem presta version. Installing is a breeze and it doesn't chew up my carbon fiber aero wheels. The only thing that will pop these puppies is something that will puncture the tire. I had one tube that had been encased in a tire for 5 years and it was still going strong. Unfortunately, the tire didn't, which is the only reason I replaced the tube.

La camera d'aria è sia robusta sia elastica quindi adattabile per ogni ruota di quelle dimensioni riportate sulla scatola, buona resistenza.

Cycliste débutant, j'ai changé pour ces pneus et suit ravis: je n'ai pas senti de ralentissement, et pour autant j'ai vraiment l'impression que ça accroche très bien sur le mouillé.
