Got a great deal on a pair of these from Wiggle last week.

7002x24 is a unusual profile of tyre onsidering standard tube sizes are 700x18 - 700x23 & 700x25 - 700x32, do people use a standard road size tube in them or go for the more voluminous 700x25?

Thoughts?

    I'd be willing to venture that they might be same tube, just labeled differently.

    Quite possibly!

    Slightly off topic but worth pointing out that Ribble are offering the Open Pave tyres for just over £30 each.
