inner tubes confused

forsdal

Hi
What size inner should i get if it has 26 x 2.2 / 2.25 on the tyre wall, the majority online seem to be 26 x 1.9 / 2.125 would these fit or is the .125 smaller than the .25 also how good are the slime ones
thanks

they will fit, just means the rubber will be slightly thin when inflates, plenty online places do tubes to fit...halfords also do them

Bought a couple of them yesterday. Says 2.1 on my tyre.

To be on the safer side, if you don't care 100g more to both wheels together, I would put
inner tubes for 2.3-2.5 tires. Less punctures.

Small tubes fit into large tyres much better than big tubes in small tyres though!

Correct, I found that when I fitted Maxxis Freeride inner 2.2-2.5" tube in my
rear Highroller 2.1". I though the outer will escape from the rims when I pumped it.
And now it makes some hollower noise than the front one.

When I was buying it, the guy at my lbs firstly gave me some DH one for 2.5-2.7" tires,
and when I saw it I was shocked. It was huge, wider than my outer. :shock:
