Ducko Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 morning! everytime i seem to leave the hpouse and take the bike with me i usually end up getting punctures, pinch and thorns etc, i run creepy crawler tyres with plenty of tread at a fairly hard tyre pressure, i was wondering what tubes people you as the tubes i seem to buy just die after a day or two, cheers craig :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-man Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 (edited) Kenda heavy duty. Is very thick and works well. I have had mine or a year and a hlf and havn't popped it yet :blink: Edited June 23, 2005 by merlin_rider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colly Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 buy a moto trials one and wack it in, they are 18inch rear rims, but it will go in as they look a lot bigger once they out. jono street trials rider on here uses a mx tube in the back of his 26. and its unpopable he said last year. :blink: get a trials tube from www.bvm-moto.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davetrials Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 4" scwinn tube 20". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burton Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 Cheng Shing tubes :P :P Cheap, reliable, light weight..but not cheesey like the monty uns IMO. Plus ive found out that with the thick tubes(like the Halo uns), about 2mm thick o so...the rubber is eaten(chunks are taken out of it) when you should pinch. So eventually they'll just rip apart (Y) Also check your rim tape :P Make sure no spokes or anything is coming though, might stop some of your punctures? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotchDave Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 Get talcum powder, coat your tube in it and the inside of your tire. Then put it back on see how that works. (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Arnold Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 a 17" motorbike tube works brill for me :P but i would suggest a 16" one as the 17 is too large in diameter :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
