Swiss Performance
Our credo is not just a written piece of text – it’s also embodied in our products where no detail is being untouched.
Contrary to the prints that the industry is using (and we used in the past) to label tubes, we decided to take the extra mile and emboss all information on our SA3 tubes. Resulting in a super high end finish.
Made in Europe
We are excited to bring manufacturing of our tubes to Europe as the only well-known brand!
All Onza tubes are manufactured to the highest quality standards in our European partner factory under fair working conditions and with less environmental impact.
47mm Presta Valve
All SA2 and SA3 mountain bike tubes are equipped with a 47mm long Presta valve. This ensures compatibility with all rims with a height between 5mm (single wall) and 35mm.
The valve core is not removable for ease of use and to prevent unwanted trailside surprises.
Valve Cap and Nut
All Onza tubes come with the valve nut and cap pre-installed and kept in an extra pouch to make tube changes fast and easy. Saving some extra time out on the trail while your friends are waiting for you to fix your puncture or saving an extra step for mechanics in our beloved bike shops.
