After buying this and putting it in my MTB it gave out and popped in less than a month of use. If you are looking for a tube that will hold up well to any abuse look for the AVENIR thorn-resistant tube for only about 9 bucks!

If you remember Schwinn products as being the best as I did.. forget these tubes
these are brand new tubes in brand new tires and leak about 3-4 lbs of air per week.. requiring constant refilling
both tubes are the same.. both leak.. neither have been damaged or pinched
I have replaced these with my old tubes as they did not lose air
This is the first review I have written and the first product I have received from Amazon that was so poor I felt the need to warn others

Just replaced my first one but I got a good solid year of use out of it before hand. Nothing fancy. Just a good basic tube.

The Schwinn Universal Tube (26-Inch x 1.9 / 2.125) is a good product for the price. I would buy it again if I needed to. I recommend it.

The first thing I do when I get a new tube is inflate it until it's 2-3x its size to check for warps, cracks, etc.

These things are fine. Ordering 4 more now (we're a biking family)

Here's a hint: get the green gunk from your local big-name hardware store. Get a valve-stem remover (some caps have them already) and use about 1/4 cup of the stuff inside the tube.

Go to a junkyard and cut out some seat-belts. Trim them and cut them to size for your tire, use a hot-glue gun to tack it into place if you need to.

The tire will weigh more, yes indeed. But you can go over thorns and nails, using this combination, and not have to worry about anything for just about forever.

I bought these because my local walmart was out of bells, or they were so poorly shelved, that i couldn't find them with the others.
I got these from a local target... unfortunately, it really does leak slowly! i installed it 3-4 days ago onto my mtb, pumped it up to 65 psi, just checked it and it's already around 58 psi! that's horrible!

I think i will try a thorn resistant one next time, maybe thicker rubber will compensate for the poor manufacturing.

I purchased this after the 'self sealing' tube exploded. The price was great and it's been a couple of months since install and no problems so far. I commute to work on my bike and it's been reliable and I've had no problems.

Was able to fix my bike tire just fine. It's been several months and no problems. Good product and good shipping.

I bought two of these tubes with my tires and it was a huge mistake. Within one week I had a slow leak in BOTH tubes, and within a week and a half I had to have them both replaced.

I put these tubes in two different mountain bikes and am very please with the results. Delivery was quick and price was great.
