Does this inner tube ride like an air inner tube? Please explain differences.

It rides close enough for my comfort. The time saved on flats and air checking as well as pumping are well worth while considering. Mounting rim as well as the inside of the tires --not that hard. I did grease the inside of the tire and the rim to help with future spoke adjustment and to prevent rust from the inside out. PEACE

For the one I've ridden several thousand miles now, a 26" x 1 3/8", the answer is yes. Moreso than the airless tires I've also tried, close enough to an aired tire I find no practical difference. It rolls pretty well too. The biggest tradeoff is how hard they are to mount. The smaller the diameter, the higher the equivalent pressure, and the harder to mount. My brother is using a larger one, and it wasn't nearly as tough to get on.

No this tube makes the bike feel heavy, and does not ride like it did with the air tube.

no it ride a little harder no bigie but if u can get the tube/tire to mount the rim w/out spinning on rim good luck I've tried lots of ways asked bell for info.talked to many bike shops with answers so I say good luck with that hope this helps

No difference that I am aware of other than instead of red flexible tubing its yellow. I personally have the red one. Works great, I get compliments everytime I ride.

The Kawasaki 841426 keeps impacting just like an air impact, and it does a great job. I love mine and I have both an air and an electric.

Your welcome. I build custom bikes and use to do maint. write-ups for my club's news letter,learned the hard way and enjoy helping people. You may still get a pinch flat as this happens when something pushes the tube into the rim. Overall, the liners work. Hope you ride with your kids. BOL.

Although I purchased the Men's version, there is very little difference. I am very happy with this bike. It is extremely lite in weight and remains pretty rugged. It picks up speed with little effort and I love the ride. The only complaint I have is the tire tube needed replacement after only several Months.

Unknown and Unknown.... However, it moves a TON of air and is super durable!! I race offroad and use this to pump air into my cvt manifold on the car. It is pumping dirt, silt, mud, and has been soaked. Still works like the day I bought it. Races like the Vegas to Reno and Baja 1000 it was ran constantly in the hot and cold elements taking a beating for excess of 30 hours. For the price, it's pretty fantastic!!

there is only one tube on it. one end goes into the pump and the other end in whatever you are inflating. the two holes on the top are where the excess air release from so the pressure isn't too much on the pump.

I have bought two of these bikes. One had air tires and the other did not. I like them both.

I don't recall that one was but I always put an innertube inside the tire which has an air valve.

As others have said, there is "some" drag, but it is really hard to quantify it. If you pick up the wheel and spin the tire it slows down faster than it did with the old hub, but I think the drag is completely insignificant when actually riding. My controller had no regen.

No. The tubes only have air going through them. This is a great model. I highly recommend it. Very easy to clean with a bottle brush that has the smaller nipple brush on it.

No. My friend has one that I have used. As Allan stated, you must push the lever for air to pass. The braided hose is too short. When airing up and the valve stem happens to be nearer to the dirt, you have to bend over until the tire is filled. From 15psi to 40, in the hot desert sun, it can be bleh. If it were longer, I would buy it. I'm looking for a better one.

The one I bought had a standard Presta valve. I do not know what you mean by "standard internal valve as opposed to one outside the stem." My complaint with the product I received was that the tube was about 3 inches longer than could be fitted into the tire. I wrote up a complaint against the not-clear-to-me sizing specs. on the package and advertizing. After I talked it over with the bike people at REI the tube SHOULD have fit in the tire. That it didn't was the company's mistake. Because I am not yet familiar with complaints to the manufacturer and returns through Amazon, I just ate the cost and loss. -- I also do not understand your "fits the 32 tire" question.

I bought this particular model just three weeks ago and it came with pump up air filled tires. The air filled tires give a much softer ride. Hope this helps.

It's most likely telling you that because of the inner tube. Dont believe it. I run the same brand tire with the tube on my 07 Kawasaki Vulcan Classic and the ywork just fine. Last rear tire I swapped out had 15,000 miles on it. Not to bad and the price is right. Good all weather tire. Keep the air pressure at 40 psi front and rear and they will last for a long time.

The road morph has a pressure gauge integral to the tube. I believe it has a little smaller air chamber to make it easier to get to higher pressures but will take a little longer to pump up the tire. The road is also about 10% lighter

It rides almost exactly like the air suspension, just barely noticeably bumpier, you just get slightly more noise, and more feel through the steering wheel. I didn't do the install myself but most of the shop quotes I got said 3-4 hours of labor - doing it yourself will most likely take double that amount of time. On top of that you need an alignment after install so add another hour at the shop.
