Fuck me, the price of inner tubes!

2025 will be all about externally cabled rim brakes and butyl tubes

I'm still there 👴

Me too!

I'm also still back in the days when we thought light tyres were important. If a latex tube is about half the weight of butyl, say two ounces as opposed to four (50/100 grams), a pair of latex tubes would save up to four ounces on your tyres which might well be noticeable.

But this would only apply if you have very light tyres to start with.

So, since my days of worrying about this sort of thing are long gone, I'll be sticking with butyl.
