Schwalbe Air Plus 26" inner tube 40-62/559 Presta valve

Description

When you need your bike to support you on long climbs and out in the terrain, it starts with the little things you don’t usually see. The Schwalbe AIR Plus 26" inner tube 40-62/559 with a Presta valve holds air longer, so instead of constantly topping it up, you can focus more on the route and your pace. It’s the kind of gear you’ll appreciate most when you don’t want to waste time stopped at the side of the road.

Main benefits

The Schwalbe AIR Plus inner tube is built with a high content of pure butyl, which means it retains air significantly better, so you can pump up less often. Compared to standard tubes, it has about 70% greater wall thickness, which in practice means higher durability and above-average puncture protection. It’s a great fit for MTB as well as everyday riding where you switch between asphalt, gravel, and roots. A nice bonus is that the tube is 100% recyclable, so it also makes sense from a sustainability perspective.

Technical specifications

This tube is designed for 26-inch wheels and covers a wide range of tires in the ETRTO standard from size 40-559 up to 62-559. In French sizing, that corresponds to a range from 26 x 1.5" up to 26 x 2.40", so it fits many common widths from narrower options to notably high-volume MTB tires. It is equipped with a Presta valve with a 40 mm valve length, which is a practical choice for most standard rims. The weight of one tube is approximately 290 g according to the manufacturer, and the more robust construction matches the focus of AIR Plus technology.

Conclusion

Schwalbe AIR Plus 26 is a reliable inner tube for riders who want longer air retention and higher puncture resistance without complicated solutions. If you ride often, switch surfaces, or run wider tires, this tube is a very sensible choice as dependable protection for the terrain and longer routes.
