Hi,

I've got the B'Twin 500 SE being delivered tomorrow but I'm not sure what size spare inner tube and which mud guards to get that will fit it, could someone recommend me some? I don't have a big budget so cheap and cheerful would be great! Here is the bike - http://www.decathlon.co.uk/triban-500-se-id_8306187.html

Thanks

    It's a 700x 23c tyre so take your pick - https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid ... e&tbm=shop

    Looks like you'll need raceblade type guards.

    Hi.
    I've got a sept 2015 500se, came with 23c tyres and a 18-25c inner tube. Stuck with the 700x23 for a week, with it with some SKS raceblade longs, just had enough clearance, but didn't like it
    Went to a 28c and fitted raceblade xl instead, but didn't change the inner tube, so it's slightly overstretched, but still OK.
    If your doing it all in store, just ask the mechanic for guidance, and they will fit them as well.

    Good luck, it's a lovely bike to ride, but becareful of your cleaning regime near the rear hub/cassette.

    Cheers
