Reviews over the
Schwalbe Aerothan Allround
4 / 5
Low rolling resistance
This is my first replacement of my Aerothan inner tube, after about 8,000 km one inner tube went flat in the rear wheel. The front wheel is still just fine and puncture resistant after about 10,000 km. With that, the quality is good. However, the inner tube deflates faster than a butyl inner tube and you therefore have to inflate the tyre more often. Moreover, compared to butyl, the rolling resistance is noticeably lower.
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Comfortable and very nice riding inner tube
Excellent and light inner tube. Can indeed ride comfortably with lower pressure also on (heavy) gravel roads with luggage. Puncture resistance is difficult to judge but of course this tube can also puncture. Sticking was a bit of a problem before. "Glueless Patches" from Schwalbe didn't always hold up and alternative patches weren't much better either. However, the latest (oval) "Glueless Patches" (model year 2022) from Schwalbe are really a godsend and they do hold up. Patching is now really fast, simple and secure. These patches are hard to come by, though, and certainly not at Mantel as yet. Plastic valves are a fraction thicker, so mini pumps with screw connections do not always fit properly. I always mount a (short) valve extender and then the problem is solved. All in all quite pricey but then you have comfort and speed. Ideal for long (vacation) trips, but take the right stickers with you.
Pros & Cons

High promises time will really tell.
I use them in new Vittoria Terrena Zero 2.0 gravel tyres. Combination feels light and smooth. During my second ride on tarmac, at high speed down hills, I still got a puncture due to a 1cm nail that had penetrated the tyre and got stuck. No inner tube can beat that. A bit of a bummer, of course, and that was already in my second ride. So the Aerothan is not invincible. Tubeless can still have its advantages. Because the inner tube deflated very slowly, I came to a controlled stop. On that front, Schwalbe delivers on its promise: no crack or blowout. Furthermore, the tyre is light, easy and quick to repair with Schwalbe stickers. The tyre is nice and small, making it easy to take the spare and put it away. And oh yes, I now also use them on my MTB in Nobby Nics. They haven't had a puncture there yet. So if you don't want the hassle of tubeless fluid and, like me, give it the benefit of the doubt, it's a great inner tube, despite the price tag.
