My Stemme has Goodyear tires and, after about 85 landings, still look

Good Year Flight Custom 111 with Leak-Guard or Air-Stop tube.
Juat one vote.

Jim, are you happier with those tubes vs a Tost?

Thanks,

Kevin

Should mention the Flight Custom 111 is tall and doesn't fit in every glider's wheel well.
