So after numerous thorns in my bike tires after riding around the neighborhood, the sales person who was awesome, Suggested I try the slime tubing since the thorns won’t puncture as quick. I bought the tubing but found my tire was still punctured the following week, have to hand pump air before my rides which is kinda a pain, I don’t know much about bike tires but it kinda puts a bummer on just getting on my bike and taking an afternoon ride when I have to check my tires constantly and pump them before each ride

Thick Bike Tube With Sealant
This is a great tube. Heavy duty and prefilled with sealant. Of course it is going to be heavier. The only thing is that for some reason all of the valve, the full extent of the part that sticks out of the rim hole, does not extend 100% out. it only comes about half way out. As it settles maybe it will completely pull out I have extra wide rims and maybe that is why but did not have this issue on other regular tubes. Still well worth the price.

Works ....Maybe Too Well?
It was very difficult to fill with air so don't wait until you're in the field to change tubes! (one tube saw 50psi before it started filling with air) The valve stems on 2 of the 4 tubes I purchased seemed to be glued in place and took some extra work to remove and clean due to the Slime additives. I've used these tubes on previous bikes and I can tell you they work! Thorns have always been a problem... until I found these tubes.
These tubes last the longest time - I wont use any others!

No More Flats
The tubes have reduced the amount of air leakage between refills to essentially zero and are protecting me from flats due to thorns and other debris on the bike trails.

Thron Residstant Thick Smart Tube
Since my new tires purchased from Dick's & the installation of the 3 tubes, my trike has much more traction. The ride is much more smoother. Ur sales rep Brandon did a great job, was very pleasant & polite. Which 4 me has made up my mind 2 B shopping @ Dick's 4 all my sporting & Christmas shopping.

Have A Compressor
Only been on one ride with these. 17.15 miles on rock and dirt single track. No leaks! Not heavy! The only gang up I had was I couldn't get them filled to pressure with a floor pump. If your tires take over 40 psi use a compressor.overall they are awesome.

Flat Free Bike Tire Protection
I REALLY LIKE MOUNTAIN BIKING. THE PROBLEM HERE IN TEXAS ARE THE DESERT THORNS. I GOT THESE NEW THICK BIKE TUBES AND NOW I RIDE ALL OVER WITHOUT GETTING A FLAT TIRE. I AM REALLY SATISFIED. GOOD PRICE

Not A Bad Tube
it is a really durable tube from what I've seen of it so far, but it does throw the overall balance of the tire somewhat. Don't really notice it on trails but it is a little on roads. No problems to speak of so far tho.

Definitely Works!
They add a bit of weight to the tires, but they are definitely worth it - especially if you live in a desert. First weekend I had them installed, I accidentally ran over a piece of jumping cholla cactus. Fortunately I was able to pull the thorns out of the tire and keep on moving without losing air.

Got The Job Done
It was everything I expected. I recommend reading the instructions if it is the first time you are replacing a tube. It makes the process a lot faster. Ride the bike on a regular basis now, so I am happy. For the price I decided to get the better slime filled tube so I hopefully dont have to replace the tube anytime soon.

Great Tube
I recentlypurchased this tube and have ridden my bike off road twice and I have not had a flat. My experience had been I got a flat on every off road ride but this fixed that problem.

Great Tube!
This is a great bike tube for the price. With this tube you could go over thorns, glass, nails, etc. and still not have a flat. These tubes run smooth and are easy to put in.

Thorn Resistant Tubes
So far we are very happy with this purchase, goat heads aren't out yet so maybe I will update this post. Very easy to install. Hoping for the best.
