inner tubes

AAG

Im in the process of ordering a few inner tubes, 2 for my MTB and 2 for my road bike.

I was looking at Continental(sale on at evans), but are they any good or can somebody recommend a better make.

Thanks

A tube is a tube, buy the cheapest you can find but if you puncture easily get thicker ones.

Don't get suckered into the deals where you get like 10 tubes, you'll just be wasting money. Just repair your tubes instead.

how do i find out how thick they are ?.

DH ones and non 'light' are a bit thicker.

OnOne have Nutrak tubes at 2 quid each. I just got some - are fine, decent thickness.

Thicker ones are often labelled DH/Freeride or heavyweight etc

And larger sizes will be thicker also, ones labelled something like 2.2-2.5" will be thicker than say, labelled 1.5-1.95".

Ok, if you needed a tube 26x2.1 schradar, what one you you buy from evans cycles.

Also what about 700x23c presta ones.

Thanks

no idea on 700c. but for the mtb tube, first off i wouldn't be looking at evans since they charge nearly six quid a tube, but if i had to i'd go for spesh ones since that's all ive ever seen there.
