I don't need or want anything else

- Martin, 29 September, 2023

Easy to put around your wheel with double-sided tape. Been riding 3000 km with it and never had a puncture. Nice and safe for yourself. I sprayed a sealant in it myself against possible small holes.

The tubulars are now fitted on my winter bike ready for the appaling pot holed roads of Somerset.

- Richard, 16 October, 2022

Prefer tubulars as easy to replace if punctured in poor conditions. Plus faster and more grip. The sense of security is much higher than riding clinchers.

Pros & Cons

Reliable
Renowned brand
Tough

- VINCENT, 12 October, 2022

Good tyre

- Martin, 9 March, 2022

Always rode with inner tubes but now new tubular wheels. Been cycling with them regularly for 2 months now both flat and in the Limburg hills. Recently injected a sealant in them to hopefully ride even MORE flat-free (for the feeling).

I think Mantel publishes only positive reviews. Here we go: Top tube. Best quality for this budget!

German grundigheit, but it doesn't roll at all.

- Fabian, 25 August, 2021

After several incidents on the road with Challenge tubes, now opted for the rock solid Gatorskins. They feel robust, although they are rather bonkers compared to the Challenge's. What is quite disappointing is the rolling resistance. It is high. If, like me, you find speed quite important and enjoyable, this tyre is not recommended, because you pedal your butt off. More suitable for fat-burning rides.

Pros & Cons

Easy to assemble

Very sound and solid
Not directly vomfortable

German grundigheit, but it doesn't roll at all.

- Fabian, 25 August, 2021

After several incidents on the road with Challenge tubes, now opted for the rock solid Gatorskins. They feel solid, although they are rather bonkers compared to the Challenge ones. What is very disappointing is the rolling resistance. It is high. If, like me, you find speed quite important and fine, this tyre is not recommended, as it pedals your pleurisy. More suitable for fat-burning rides.

Value for money...top

- Thierry, 23 June, 2021

Several kilometres on a wooded path that's more suitable for mountain bikes or cyclocross (wrong route)...and no problems. Personally, it's the sign of a quality product.

Very reliable for many miles

- Richard, 16 March, 2021

Rode around with the previous one for two years. Had 1 slow deflate and then filled with some latex, then many miles again. Does take necessary sweat to get on my Edco's despite pre-stretching.

Durable tube

Ideal tube for the mile-eater. On long rides, you don't have to worry about punctures, which is always a downside with tubes.

Smooth confident ride.

A lovely tyre, smooth and confidence inspiring. Soaks up the bumps and rolls nicely over our choppy English roads!
