I’ve seen loads of TPU tubes for sale recently. They come in all colours from orange, green, pink etc. Does the colour make any difference or is branding key?

Just branding.
36 G are a bit too much of acceleration for my taste, I’d be careful.
no but certain stem design are known to fail so I would check the reviews
The colour doesn’t. What mattered for me was wether or not the valve stems were threaded so I could use the little lock ring to keep them stable. Some of them use little tape patches for that purpose but those didn’t appeal to me.
Red ones are faster, green more puncture resistant, blue gives magic boost, orange improves your overall power when using the bike on zwift.
(No not at all)
Pink are for Giro d’Italia, yellow for Tour de France, orange for Vuelta a España 😉
Doesnt matter. But i have been using the ride now pink ones on my hardtail mtb this season. And so far no puncture. ( tanus armour in the rear wheel). Only one failed lately but i could not find the leak when out of the tire with low preassure. I am happy with them so far so i got these 36g for road bike but havent tested them yet.
