Hmmmmmm. Well, the replacement tubes I picked up at my LBS are Specialized (since they didn't have any more of the Bontrager tubes with short stems). We'll see how long the replacement lasts vs. the remaining Bontrager tube. The Specialized tubes were nearly half the price of the Bontrager tubes, anyway.
