The valve is great with the cap.
Reviewing a butyl tube, is kind of like rating toilet paper. When it is better than average, it is noticeable! When I opened these tubes, I definitely noticed some attention to detail that other tubes do not include. So far, they are holding up well....
Well my headline is an attempt at humor. The tubes do what they are supposed to do, keep my tires full of air. If Schwalbe tubes are as tough as their marathon tires, then these would be awesome. I honestly lose of what brand of tube I'm looking at while I fix a flat. The tire itself is the number one defender of the integrity against a flat.
These are great all-around tubes, and I've had only positive outcomes with them. A bit more costly than some others, but price is discounted if you buy them with tires.
Very good quality rubber and they fit multiple size tires. Best tubes I have ever used in 20 years of commuting.
Good quality tube for my 700x38C hybrid tires. Better construction than the cheaper mass market tubes, especially in the Presta valve. Seems to hold air pressure well between rides.
I like Schwalbe products. This is the reason why I purchased this tube. You won't be disappointed.
The inner tubes are the same high quality that I've come to expect from Schwalbe. From their indestructible Marathon Plus tires to now these quality inner tubes, Schwalbe has cornered the market for all of my bike touring needs!
No problems yet.
My go-to tube in multiple sizes. Holds consistent pressure for several days. Solid performer.
I gave up on most other brands for tubes because of problems with failing valve stems, slow leaks, and blowouts. These tubes are bomb proof and hold pressure for over a week without noticeable loss of pressure. Worth the slightly heavier weight for those long rides on remote rural roads full of hazards and debris.
This have proved reliable. And at 50mm the stem is the right length -- not too short, not too long.
gravel and rural paved roads. Has held up well all season, particularly like the length and and functionality of valve stem.
I needed some new tubes and I couldn't get my regular brand so, I took a chance on these. Fortunately, I haven't needed them yet. I do hope they serve me well when the time comes.
Worth the extra couple bucks over generic tubes. They just have a quality feel to them. The presta valves are not fragile. They maintain air pressure very well too. This was my first experience with this brand, but I think they may have bumped Continental down a peg in my tube hierarchy. Will definitely buy these again.
These seem to be a solid product but like all tubes they are at the mercy of the type of tire you ride with and the condition of the roads you travel. If you aren't ready for the time and expense of converting to tubeless tires I think these will keep you rolling.
I like schwalbe products for their quality and variety of selection.
Durable. Holds good pressure longer than other tubes I've used.

When the tubes were advertised it was said they were great at holding air pressure for long periods of time. Well its true. I only air mine up every four to five days and could probably go longer if I wanted to push it. Well made product.
