Latex or butle? All latex tubes need to pumped up before every ride. If they were regular tubes they were defective.Coolhand said:No issues over many years for me.

+1 I just moved to latex and like them a lotkbwh said:Have been riding Michelin latex tubes for 7 years. Checking the tire pressure every day never bothered me. Your mileage may vary, as they say.
If I wasn't running tubeless, I would use latex.Cpk said:+1 I just moved to latex and like them a lot
Our Michelin A1 tubes lose about 1 bar (15 psi) per week. And that has been the case for the decade or so that we have been using them as our preferred inner tube. YMMVrubbersoul said:Suck! Go flat within 3 days after being pumped up. Switched to Continental..perfect, no deflation through osmosis.

Not a process of osmosis as I’m pretty sure you don’t have water entering your tubes but rather oxygen migrating (permeating) faster out of your Michelin tubes as you suspected...yes?rubbersoul said:... no deflation through osmosis.
