I prodotti S-Tubo sono caratterizzati da uno spessore ridotto delle pareti dei tubi. Pertanto, sono ancora più piccoli, più leggeri e hanno una resistenza al rotolamento molto bassa. S-Tubo-Road, ad esempio, è la camera d’aria per bicicletta più leggera al mondo e ha una resistenza al rotolamento paragonabile a quella dei tubi in lattice.
S-Tubo è la nostra linea per le prestazioni. Nonostante tutte queste caratteristiche, le S-Tubo hanno la stessa resistenza alle forature delle camere d’aria in butile standard.
Anni di ricerca e innumerevoli procedure di test garantiscono che i Tubolito offrano le migliori prestazioni possibili. Oggi abbiamo sviluppato processi produttivi che sfruttano appieno il potenziale del materiale high-tech TPU per i tubi delle biciclette.
Il test di foratura ad ago dimostra che i Tubolito sono due volte più resistenti alle forature rispetto ai tubi in butile tradizionali. Inoltre, offrono un’analoga ritenzione d’aria e superano il test dei freni secondo la norma DIN 4210 con cerchi in alluminio e carbonio. In caso di foratura, il tubo può essere facilmente riparato con il Tubo Patch Kit.

Tubo: The perfect tube for everyday use – more robust and lighter than conventional butyl tubes. Combining performance and durability, it’s the smart upgrade for any bike.
S-Tubo: Light as a feather and compact due to reduced wall thickness – extremely low rolling resistance. Perfect as a spare tube. S-Tubos achieve very similar results in the needle puncture test as much heavier rubber tubes.
X-Tubo: No Flat Tube – extremely durable. Designed for everyday riding with maximum resistance to punctures and includes a 1-year replacement policy for registered X-Tubos on our website.
Standard pump heads require at least 15 mm of valve to remain above the rim for proper inflation.
To choose the correct valve length, use this simple rule:
Valve length – Rim height ≥ 15 mm
So, subtract your rim height (in mm) from the valve length (in mm). If the result is 15 mm or more, the valve will work with standard pump heads.
The maximum and minimum air pressure for using Tubolitos depends on the tire being used. Please always follow the pressure specifications provided on the tire.
Important: Tubolitos must not be inflated to more than 0.5 bar / 7 psi when outside the tire. Overinflating them outside the tire can lead to deformation and damage.
We have had the rolling resistance of our products tested by an independent body. The following graphs show the results:
As the graph below indicates, Tubos have similar characteristics concerning air retention as rubber tubes.
Yes — if a puncture occurs, you can easily repair the inner tube using our specially developed Tubo-Patch Kit, designed specifically for TPU tubes.
Important: Repair kits made for butyl rubber tubes are not compatible with Tubolitos.
Our story began with research into a durable material for smartphone speaker membranes — one that was light, thin, and extremely resilient.
Technicians and passionate mountain bikers Christian Lembacher and Akos Kertesz quickly realized that the newly developed high-tech material TPU was perfectly suited for bicycle inner tubes — a true revolution in the cycling world, where tubes had previously only been made of rubber or latex.
Our mission has always been to create bicycle inner tubes that are not only lightweight and robust, but also significantly enhance the performance and safety of bicycles.
