1 day agoTubolito 32-Inch MTB Tubes: Coming in Spring 2026
Tubolito released the Tubo-MTB-32 TPU tube specifically for 32-inch mountain bike wheels and tires to support emerging 32-inch bikes.
As a quick explainer/refresher: Tubular tires generally are constructed of a lightweight fabric casing (often polyester, cotton, or silk) sewn shut over a relatively conventional inner tube, with a rubber tread then glued on top. In the end, you glue the whole thing directly to a smooth rim bed without bead hooks. The conventional wisdom has been that this makes for lightweight, suppleness, and low rolling-resistance at high pressures on smooth surfaces, i.e. track racing.
