Aerothan tubes are about 40% lighter compared to Schwalbe Extralight tubes made of butyl. In addition to an extremely low rolling resistance at tubeless levels and has increased puncture protection.
Aerothan tubes consist of 100% thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), including the valve, and are therefore fully recyclable. Like all Schwalbe tubes, Aerothan tubes may be returned to Schwalbe at no cost using the tube recycling program. The material of used tubes is recycled to make sealing or insulation material.
 
Aerothan Race Tube
For road riding with tubes, the Aerothan tube is the first choice. It offers low rolling resistance with dynamic, smooth riding characteristics.
Compared to butyl tubes, a total weight reduction of 100 g may be achieved for the entire bike. Aerothan Tube Race offers not only reliable puncture protection but also safety when descending a mountain: Even when several emergency brakes are applied with rim brakes in a short sequence, one can count on its heat resistance capacities.
