Conti Race Tube

The Continental Race 28 Light 700C inner tube with an 80mm Presta valve is made for modern road wheels where rim depth matters. It suits 700 x 20–25c tyres and helps riders run deep-section rims without valve extenders, keeping the setup simple and reliable.

If you’re riding carbon aero wheels or deep alloy rims, short valves quickly become a hassle. This tube removes that problem entirely, giving you easy pump access while keeping the same lightweight, consistent ride feel Continental Race tubes are known for.

Who is this for?

Ideal for road cyclists using deep-section rims who want a clean, extender-free setup. It suits racers, fast group riders, and performance-focused trainers running 700c tyres in the 20–25c range and higher tyre pressures.

Who is this not for?

Not suitable if you’re riding shallow rims where an 80mm valve would be excessive, or if you’re on wider tyres above 25c. It’s also not aimed at riders looking for TPU tubes or maximum puncture protection for commuting.

Why we love it

We like the simplicity. The long valve means no extenders to rattle, leak, or get forgotten on race morning. You get straightforward inflation and the same dependable Continental quality we’ve come to trust.

Hot tip!

An 80mm valve is perfect for most deep carbon rims, but always check your rim depth before buying. If the valve sticks out clearly past the rim, pumping on the roadside is much easier and faster.
