My tpu experience has been poor. Several leaking around the valve stem. Quite a few gone in the bin. Loose about 20psi a week even when not suffering from the aforementioned issue. Still I’ve persisted on my weekend bike. The commuter bike will stay with butyl.

You mention not having digital calipers. Mine, 100mm plastic, came from Ali, and are so cheap I buy them four at a time. one in every toolbox.

[@nikinikcc]

Good point! I should get those calipers too!

just don't leave bike on direct sun with tpu inner tubes

[@nikinikcc]

Oh really? I did not know about this one. What could happen if you did?

[@enuazeal]

@@nikinikcc they blow up. had two rear tires got hole about 5mm in diameter while the bike was parked on direct sun. first i was like wtf just happened. went on bike packing trip las summer, stop at bakery, left bike outside, was around 35C on sun. when i finished eating, flat tire... i thought maybe i went harder over curb but second time 3 months ago went on longer ride also, ant it was hot, not 35 but above 30C on direct sun, went in restaurant to eat, was outside not far from my bike, waiting for food, and just hear tire pop... interesting front tire was ok whole year. so after this trip removed both inner tubes and went tubeless :)

@@enuazealyou must have been at the maximum allowable PSI. I forget what it is but ridenow advertises to not go over a certain psi and that heat does make the pressure go up, but probably left in the car heat not outside hot heat

[@enuazeal]

@@jpoodle nope, pump my tires at ~70psi always, and i dont have car when i ride my bike :)

[@davidmurphy9151]

@@enuazeal the max psi for those tubes is 72 - in thhe heat they likely exceeded that.
