Race Tube
We could go on and on about the benefits of low rotational weight, but at the end of the day, you just need a tube that's lightweight and tough -- a tube like the Continental Race Tube. Offering substantial weight savings over throw-away bulk tubes, the Race Tube lives up its name while still supplying ample protection from roadside debris. So, when you're looking to shave grams on race day, the Race Tube is the obvious pairing for your carbon clinchers.
The Continental Race Tube is available in a 700c x 18-25mm size with the option of either a 42 or 60mm Presta valve. For your classic build, it's also being offered in a 27in x 1-3/4in size.

Bad, bad quality

No quality control. 2 out of 4 tubes had audible punctures even before actually setting the tubes on the wheel. 1 other would deflate within minutes. Never again.

Presta Has Air Issues

Tube wouldn't fiil or deflate. The cores jam in some peculiar way. I removed them, aligned the seals and they were fine until yesterday. I replaced them with some cores from old tubes. All good now.

I bought 3 tubes (700x18-25mm, 60mm Presta) each of them last for 15 miles. Stay away from those tubes. All holes between parts. (see attached photo)

tube split at 100 psi
Just bought two of these tubes and installed one this morning. Pumped up the tire to 100 psi and when I came out this evening, the tire was flat. Pulled it from the wheel and saw that it had split down the seam near the valve. Split was a good 1+ inches long.
