Inner tubes
I probably won't use it. I didn't know what I was getting. They are huge stiff thick butt rubber tubes. You had better not get thorns. I bet they are extremely durable.

The picture as of June 14 is of a regular tire tube. The one that arrived is HUGE. It is about 4 times as big as a regular tire tube and weighs about 21 Oz/600 gr. Yes, that is 5 oz more than 1 pound. On the bright side, they look really tough.

Comments about Kenda Thorn Resistant Presta Valve Tube:
I bought these because we have a hard time finding presta valve tubes in our town. I thought it was a good price and thorn resistant- heck yes! Unfortunately, when I received them, they were HUGE. They would fit a 26" tire but they were heavy and too big to fit into my hydration pack where I keep an extra tube in case of a flat on the trails. I sent my husband to return them and it cost us more to send them back than it did to purchase them (should have just tried to sell them online). Only buy these if you want big thick tubes that add weight to your wheels and you don't want to carry an extra one in case of a flat.

Comments about Kenda Thorn Resistant Presta Valve Tube:
One tube (on rear) ripped after 20+ miles, probably because it spun inside the tire and the value became tilted. The front tube must be re-centered and re-pumped before every ride. Back to Schrader tubes - fortunately these were on sale, so only a few dollars were lost. And no Kenda tubes - I thought these would be best for the Small Block 8s I bought.

Comments about Kenda Thorn Resistant Presta Valve Tube:
These tubes tear at the stems. I got one ride in for about 20 minutes and the next day when I got the bike out the tire was flat. I put the same tube in and the same thing happened.

Comments about Kenda Thorn Resistant Presta Valve Tube:
Bought these as a possible alternative to Slime Tubes. Have not used, but the tubes are super thick/heavy. The box they come in is double the size of typical tube boxes so they don't fit in a seat pack and would take up a lot of room in the Camelback. Don't know when, if ever, I will use these.

Comments about Kenda Thorn Resistant Presta Valve Tube:
Paired with Mavic CrossRide rims with Hookworms. Only did under 100 miles, and the rear tire had blown near the valve. I'm used to patching up tires from city riding, but near the valve? Checked the rim, and it was fine. It was a manufacturing issue. Will try to contact manufacture.
Not only a broken valve, but the rubber is not consistent around the tube. Very bulgy in certain areas, and doesn't hold a traditional "circle" shape. Can't run low psi very well due to this, corners feel sloppy, straight lines even wobble.
I DID like how I could ride my newly built bike for a bit...
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Kenda Thorn Resistant Presta Valve Tube:
Being here in Arizona, thorns and thorns some more. This tube along with a liner, never worry about thorns or cactus again.
Comments about Kenda Thorn Resistant Presta Valve Tube:
No wonder they're so cheap: I ordered 5 b/c I thought they'd be burly & heavy duty. Turns out they're just heavy & they pinch flat...I guess they make the bottom real strong and sacrifice the sidewall strength.
