Why Choose RideNow TPU?
The transition from butyl to RideNow’s Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) inner tubes offers significant advantages for every cyclist:
Extremely Lightweight: With a weight up to 70% lower than standard butyl, you significantly reduce the rotating mass of your wheels. This results in snappier acceleration and more agile handling.
Superior Puncture Resistance: Despite its lightweight nature, TPU is up to three times stronger and more resistant to impacts and punctures than classic inner tubes.
Unrivaled Compactness: A RideNow tube can be folded into an extremely small package. This allows you to effortlessly carry a spare in your saddlebag or jersey pocket without taking up valuable space.
Airtight and Comfortable: TPU retains air significantly better than latex or butyl. Furthermore, the material is more flexible, which provides superior shock absorption and reduced rolling resistance.
The Sustainable Choice: The production of RideNow tubes is more ecological; it requires fewer chemicals and less water, resulting in a CO2 footprint up to 50% lower than butyl. Additionally, the material is fully recyclable.
