DeeZee Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Hello I got a wheel build from tarty bikes, but the rim I got (Ronnie rim) won't accept the original inner tube off my 2005 T-Rex. The hole in the rim is much smaller? Does this mean I'm going to need a new inner tube to use this rim, or can I just drill it out?If I need a new inner tube with a special valve, does that mean I'm going to need a new pump to inflate the new special inner tube.I wish someone had told me I needed a new inner tube.

watto Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 (edited) you can just drill it out as it drilled for presta tubes but i just stuck myne thorugh one of the drilled hole s EDIT : i should no this because i used to run one also have you found that the holes havn't been deburred i cut my finger when i finally got myne Edited December 23, 2005 by watto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeZee Posted December 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 OK, i'll re-drill the hole. It sounds easier than going to presto tubes. They have a right funny valve on em. Oh Well, You live and learn, I guess.Thanks for the tips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
