Saw these whilst looking on the Planet X website and thought this was excellent value / bargain.
Good quality inner tubes are vital for keeping your tyre pressure consistent and avoiding punctures, keeping your clincher tyres rolling with the minimum of fuss. Although we stock big name tubes by market leaders like Continental, Michelin and Schwalbe, we genuinely love our own brand inner tubes. Planet X and On-One inner tubes compete with the best on quality terms, but thanks to our no-nonsense pricing and direct sales model they save you money and mean you needn't ever be caught short without a tube again.
You can collect from store for free or postage is £3.95 (no matter how many you buy, so worth stocking up (or free on a £50+ spend))

Mighty cheap, mighty heavy. Good for spares though :smiley:.

Economically it's just not worth repairing tubes any more at this price (rarely paid over £1.50 a tube in last 5 years). Voted hot.
I do think about environmental impact of not repairing as recycling won't take and feel bad sending them to landfill but I think this is outweighed by the simple act of riding a bike so I shouldn't trouble myself.

I stocked up on them last week. Just weighed a 700x18/25 with an 80mm valve and it was 135g. Not particularly lightweight, but unlikely to be noticeable over any other regular tube (~100g)
