Default Inner tubes

Who has the best 21 inch tubes currently? I going to use them in wheels I use on my roller chassis so not concerned show quality, but they do need to hold air!

Like marriage, all tubes hold air. The questions becomes - for how long !

Short of that smart-ass remark, both Bratton's and Snyder's are allegedly supposed to have good tubes.

Good response! I know from experience that tubes left sitting in your garage for 20 years don't!

There were some bad ones out there for a while. Sounds like the quality has returned to normal. Got mine from Macs, no trouble.

They will only be flat on the bottom if they do lose air

Brattons has them made to his specs. Some other vendors sell them. I search of the forum will give you better answers.

Such as;
