[Gear] What tubes 23mm Tyres?

ray o · 2012-04-25 09:22:54

I need to stock up on some tubes for the season. I have been using a combination of Continental and Schwalbe tubes but but just wondering what peoples preferred brand and type of tubes were for their race wheels.

After loads of hassle with cheaper brands I just use Continental tubes now. Lots of valve stems separating from the tube were the main issue.

Race wheels that are clinchers? Would have to be a latex tube.
