What size tubes should I get for 26x2.1 off road tyres please.
Thinking of fitting some slicks or semi 's for a bit of fitness building road work what size tubes for those tyres?

any recommendations for road tyres and tubes welcome..

The kex thing, not sure I can bring myself to wear the tighties :oops: so anyone recommend something a bit less...well...ballet? :wink:

thanks.

  • Tube for a 2.1 will most likely be 1.5 -2.2.Specialized tubes are a good balance between price/durability/weight.

    For slicks,you probably only really need a 1.5.Conti Gatorskins,or similar.Any slick is going to feel fast,after knobblies.

    For kecks try a pair of Endura Humvee 3/4s.
