Hi,

I am looking to stock up on inner tubes. 2 questions I have got 700x28 tyres.

Would i be better getting 700x20-28 or 28-38mm

and where's the best value place to get them from.

I am looking for 5-10
Cheers
Rich

    If you have a Decathlon store anywhere hear you, they sell pairs for £1.95.

    However from memory I think they might be sold as 20-23 - so possibly no good to you......

    Ribble Cycles do 10 Continental Race Tubes for £16.45 (+£2.95 delivery)
    Or 25 for £27.50 - but who would need that many, unless you go halves with someone?

    I got that many, used loads of them already, with having 3 (1 set is a bit knackered though) sets of wheels. I keep poking holes in them with tyre levers, I think I've learned my lesson now though.
    I like bikes...

    Go for the larger size. Slightly better puncture protection.
