According to the product specialist
Pros
| With a latex inner tube, you will enjoy improved riding characteristics such as traction, rolling resistance and comfort of your tyres. |
| A Latex inner tube is lighter and more flexible than a Butyl inner tube. |
| These inner tubes are compatible with outer tubes from 20 mm to 25 mm |
| The Schwalbe SV15 inner tubes are suitable for tyres with a width of 18 to 28 millimetres. |
| These inner tubes are available in different valve lengths (40, 50 and 60 mm). |
| Ideally, the valve should protrude about 1.5 cm above the rim, although this can vary depending on the pump head. |
| These butyl inner tubes are reliable and flexible, enhancing the properties of the outer tyres. |
| This inner tube has a removable valve core. |
| By minimising the thickness of the side wall, Schwalbe has succeeded in achieving optimum weight savings. |
| The Schwalbe SV20 is suitable for 28 inch tyres with a width of 18 to 25 millimetres. |
| Due to the strict quality control in the factory, you are assured of a high quality inner tube. |
| This latex inner tube enhances the tyre's properties such as grip, rolling resistance and comfort. |
| Since this inner tube is fully seamless, you have fewer weak spots than in other latex inner tubes. |
| This latex inner tube is lighter and more flexible than a butyl tube. |
| If used with a supple tyre, the Latex Race inner tube reduces your chance of a flat tyre. |
| The inner tube is compatible with 23 to 30 mm tyre widths. |
Cons
| Latex is less airtight than butyl, requiring you to check the pressure before every ride. |
| Due to the thicker sidewalls, the inner tube is slightly heavier than a lightweight variant. |
| Due to the thinner sidewall, the tyre is less resistant to sharp stones, twigs and glass. |
| As latex tubes lose pressure faster than butyl tubes, you should inflate the tyre before every ride. |
