Apart from the obvious is there any other time that you would change the tubes, every so many months?, when you chnage tyres?

Cheers

    Tubes will last for years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years.

    So, no, you don't need to change them unless you manage to damage them in a way that renders them useless (e.g. tearing the valve off).

    I never repair my tubes, and this is the only time they get replaced....if I fit new tires and the tubes still hold air they go back in. :D
