All Tubolitos are made from the high-tech plastic TPU. TPU has been successfully used in the industry for many years and is valued for its outstanding performance.
The founders of Tubolito, Ákos Kertész and Christian Lembacher, worked with TPU before founding Tubolito and have built extensive expertise over the years.
The combination of TPU with a patented manufacturing process makes it possible for Tubolitos to be small, lightweight, and at the same time puncture-resistant. These properties can be optimized depending on what is required from the Tubolito.

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 begins with research into a durable material for smartphone speaker membranes – light and thin, yet extremely resistant.
The technicians and amateur mountain bikers Christian Lembacher and Akos Kertesz quickly realized that the newly developed high-tech material TPU was ideal for bicycle inner tubes! A revolution in the world of cycling, where until then all tubes had been made of rubber or latex.
Our mission has always been to create bicycle inner tubes that are not only light and robust, but also significantly improve the performance and safety of bicycles.
