Hello,
i'm after some recomendations for a good training tub,not too heavy but not too light that they puncture.

Many thanks

    A bump back to top here.

    I need a suggesttion for some backup tubs - i've got Corsa Evo CX on as good tyes, but i'm off to Majorca next week and want to take a couple of cheapish tubs, just in case...

    I'm using Jantex tub tape, so i understand i'm better with Vittoria tubs than Conti, (which I understand work better with Tufo extreme tape)

    Also, I am using 50mm carbon rims, so i need to be able to use a valve extender - ithe Corsas have a non removable valve core , so the conti extenders i have go below the removavle vittoria valve at the moment...

    I understand the vittoria rally http://www.wiggle.co.uk/p/cycle/7/Vitto ... 360010635/ doesn't have a removable valve core - so how will this work?

    Any opinion on this as a spare tub?

    Thanks
