persistant_itch Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Just wondering the best tubes to use on a fourplay? Any body have any recommendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FamilyBiker Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 schwalbe av10D for the rear,the front doesnt matter :wink2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials hoe Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 i used a generic tube in the front and a maxxis dh in the rear with no issues (on an echo 24 though), if you want something extra thick halo extra safe is 3mm iirc also kenda (i think) do a 'thorn-proof' 4mm thick one. never used the halo or kenda ones but i bet they weigh a ton hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalopS Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Any generic tube will do as long as you ride smoothly. I've never used a DH version tube but I haven't noticed any difference between the generic sized tubes and the larger volume ones you can get.

Miss-Higgy Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 tescos! There only cheap, and if you ride dead good, you wont pop them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

persistant_itch Posted April 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Thanks for the replies everyone, I think what I'll do is get each one mentioned, as I need them, and decide then what suits be best or lasts best. I might get the tesco ones to bring on rides with me, just for cheap quick changes? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashleys sugden Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 i use maxxis DH tubes, never ever popped them, but they are quite thick which means more weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewEH1 Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 You have two Maxxis DH tubes (Schrader valve) already installed. Very hard to get a puncture! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
