SQuiT-man Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 Hi, Does anyone know of a heavy-duty tube I can use in my 19" rear mod wheel? I heard Monty ones were good, but when I ordered one from cleanbikes, a "Monty Ultra-lite" one came that was basically the same as the other really lightweight ones I have used before on my mod- I have already had two pinches while running very high p.s.i. with my maxxis creepy crawlers! Id only really resort to moped innertubes if I really had to, but how much do they weigh? Also, what rear tubes to other people who run low p.s.i. use, such as CLS, etc? Cheers, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Arnold Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 motorbike inner tubes, get either a 16 or 17" one :- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swize Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 (edited) Ok the reason you have pinched with a maxxis is because ur running a high psi and you have rimmed out and because the tube is so big in the tyre it can't move = pinching. Get you maxxis and put some talcome powder in the tryre and put it on the rim ect ect and put in 10-12 psi . I ran this and i rimmed it hard but the reason i didunt pinch was because the pressure was low meaning the tube could move out the way of the rim to not pinch . Just try it for a week and see how it goes ?? Sam PS i was running a standard tube. Edited September 16, 2005 by samthebiker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SQuiT-man Posted September 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 Thats an interesting idea about the tyre pressure making the tube grip inside the tyre, I hadnt thought about that. I do use a lot of taulcuum powder already though, its real slippy on the inside of the tyre. If I was to use moped inner tubes, would that most likely completely stop me getting pinches though?
