I tried them on my road bike and had a less than desirable experience. Curious how others feel about them for bmx?

Never used them but I imagine they would be very nice for less rotational weight
Nope just standard odyssey tubes, but that build clean tho š¤š¼ also peeped the frontier š
Ive never used them so im biased in my opinion. But i was under the impression that tpu came with a bit more of a price tag, and to be honest im cheap when it comes to the most consumable part of pretty well any bike.
All that said, there is a person who could benefit regardless of price. But minimal gains usually cost a lot, statistically.
Yes
I run them on my race bike. Have tried the ride now and tubolitos. Have had really good luck with the ride now ones Iām coming up on two years on my rear tube.
I find the valves slowly leak out the air compared to a rubber tube. Need to check your pressure every ride. Also make sure you have good rim tape with no exposed spoke holes.
My son uses Rixin tubes in his race bike. They lose about 5psi a week. Not bad compared to some of the others.
