What Is It
The Kenda 700x28–32C AV inner tube is a standard butyl rubber bicycle tube designed for 700c wheels running medium-width tyres (28mm to 32mm).
It uses an AV (Schrader / car-type valve), which is the same valve found on most car tyres and many MTB bikes, making it easy to inflate at service stations or with basic pumps.
