Tyres & Tubes

mikeitup

Have just ordered some Schwalbe Marathon Tyres 26 x 1.50
What would be the best tubes to use with them?

26x1.10-1.50 or 1.50-2.25?

thanks

Either will work!
You might find the smaller ones are lighter and give a theoretical advantage in terms of weight saving (lucky if you notice it).

But used at the right pressure they should perform the same.

The other consideration is "Do I have another bike that'll take one of these sizes?"
In which case go for that.
Otherwise you're in the lucky situation of finding your LBS has sold out of your size of tube half as often as the rest of us!
