The Decathlon ones are £3 for two - with the cost of shipping they're £10 for 4. I've used quite a few (they're cheap and I've a fairly local store) and they're no worse than most of the rest.

I just measured one, it's about 30mm - is 32mm the standard length for short valves? It's not marked on the package.

as little as £26.80 for 10 from Ribble. But I prefer the Michelin Airstop. Valves are much better. Had trouble with splitting valve seam on the Contis.

I suppose the best cannot possibly be the cheapest but have had to use up 2 good schwalbe innertubes yesterday (schwalbe 700c) and before ordering more I would like to ask are there cheaper yet good alternatives...I have none at the moment and so need to order some today (hoping I don't get a p******* tomorrow!) I could not repair the previous innertubes as they had rips along the rubber (cheap you see)...so can anyone point me to the best value innertube site on the web...please

There is only one make of inner tube that is worth spending money on and that is one you already have - Schwalbe. I have had them all but Schwalbe stand out for their durability and quality. I now only use Schwalbe. Also make sure the rim tape is in excellent condirion.

After trying various, I'd agree with Crankarm. Schwalbe do seem to be a cut above the rest.
Merlin often have them cheap, or Spa if you are buying lots at a time.

I certainly won't be using Contis again despite the price. I got a 10 pack from Ribble which turned out not to be such a bargain after I'd discarded those with faulty valves.
