Strengths: Doesn't get flats very often.
PriceWeaknesses: Extremely heavy!!!!!!
You'd be better off using an inflatable raft in your wheel instead of this tube!Bottom Line: I had bought these tubes at a race last year because I desperately needed a tube and Trace was all that they had left! So I bought it, used it. A few months later, I was changing my tires and was wondering how much they weighed (I was just starting my rotational mass diet craze!). I pulled out my scale and gasped at 240 grams!!!!!!!!! Then I weighed a specialized tube at 140 grams!!!!! Needless to say I changed back to specialized and whoa could I see the difference after training for abour 2 1/2 months on these tractor tubes! These tubes suck big time because of the weight. There are plenty of lighter tubes on the market that are just as cheap and just as flat resistant. I will definetly never buy a Trace tube again. And actually, most of their other products are of equally bad quality. Consumers beware!
