bpong Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 W......T.......F....... went to the local store to pick up an inner tube for my glide 3 and i paid near 23$ CAD for the thing. i should have checked ebay and amazon cause they are much cheaper online. if anyone has ordered these online, please post your opinion about the quality of the tube you ordered. im curious as to whether the quality is different (worse, same or better) than the store bought item. a short web search produced the following: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/16x2-125-Inner-Tube-with-Angled-Valve-for-Electric-Bike-100-butyl-rubber/163253347440?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20160908110712%26meid%3Db417e87459fc4d5d829db0ff35e4bb06%26pid%3D100677%26rk%3D7%26rkt%3D29%26sd%3D273340763993%26itm%3D163253347440&_trksid=p2385738.c100677.m4598 i will order this item to see if its quality is same or worse than what i store bought. damn im pissed....

I think it's supply and demand. There's not much demand for bent valve tubes. BTW, that tube that you linked to might not work. Looks like a 90-degree valve (which many are). You need to be sure to order a tube with a shallower angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mono Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 The latest tubes for the V8/Glide 3 I bought were 5 EUR, see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaiKi Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I was wondering about the expensive tubes too. So i repaired my old one to keep it in reserve and filled the new one with slime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
