TPU inner tubes main benefits
TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) tubes offer several benefits for road bikes.
They are lightweight, puncture-resistant, have low rolling resistance, and are durable.
These advantages can lead to improved performance and a more efficient ride on the road.
Additionally, TPU tubes offer some of the benefits of a tubeless system without the additional requirements of a special rim and tire setup.
Overall, TPU tubes are a reliable and convenient option for road bike riders who want to improve their ride experience.
Are the TPU tubes trusted and reliable for Road bicycle?
The TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) tubes are a newer option for road bike inner tubes and they have unique advantages when compared to other types of tubes especially for Road bikes.
When compared to the commonly used butyl tubes, TPU tubes have a lower weight, increased puncture resistance, and lower rolling resistance.
These advantages can lead to improved performance while riding on the road.
When compared to latex tubes, TPU tubes also have low rolling resistance and offer a smooth ride.
However, TPU tubes are more durable and puncture-resistant than latex tubes, which are more expensive and less durable.
Lastly, TPU tubes provide a simpler and more affordable option for riders who want some of the benefits of a tubeless system, such as lower rolling resistance, without the additional requirements of a special rim and tire setup.
It's important to consider each type of tube's unique advantages and disadvantages to choose the best option that fits your needs and preferences as a rider.
Can TPU tubes be trusted for their reliability?
Yes, TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) tubes are considered to be trusted and reliable for use in road bicycles.
They are a newer option in the market for inner tubes, but have gained popularity due to their durability, flexibility, and resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and UV light.
Compared to other commonly used inner tubes for road bikes, TPU tubes have several advantages, such as being lighter in weight, more puncture-resistant, and having lower rolling resistance. These features can help improve the performance of a road bicycle.
Overall, TPU tubes are a reliable choice for road bicycles, but as with any product, it's important to choose the right type of tube for your specific application and to ensure that it is installed and maintained properly.
TPU tires: Instructions of exploitation
This inner tube cannot be inflated a lot when it is not installed in the outer tire, otherwise it will cause irreversible damage!
Please use a manual air pump instead of high-speed air filling equipment such as air compressors or pumps.
Before inflating the TPU tube, turn the valve inward (towards the center of the tire circle).
Inflate a small amount until the inner tube is round; this pressure should be less than 0.5 bar/8 PSI.
Tire inflation pressure must not exceed 5 bar/72PSI When using rims with a no-ring-lip system according to ISO/TC 31.
Every 3° (5°F) increase in temperature would increase the tire pressure by about 1%.
If you inflate the tires in a cool garage in the morning (18°C / 65°F) and ride later at higher ambient temperatures (35°C / 95°F), it may result in an increase in inner tube pressure (e.g. 0.5 bar/8 PSI).
Especially when riding on high temperature black asphalt pavement with temperature exceeding 65°C (150°F), the tire pressure may easily exceed the allowable maximum value.
In addition, too high tire pressure can cause the tire to break away from the rim during cycling, which can result in the risk of injury.
If pneumatic tires are stored at 60°C (140°F) or higher (e.g. in a car in hot weather), deflate the inner tube to 1 bar/15 PSI to avoid valve deformation.
