alex_jsy Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 I was having a problem with my rear innertube puncturing the other day and couldn't understand whyits one of those monty 19" by 2.6 inner tubes and i would expect it to be holding up much better than it waswhen i took the tyre off i saw the inner tube was a thin cheng shin 20" x 2.125is this monty just trying to rip people off charging a few extra quid for an inner tube that isn't designed to fit a wide tyreor can the spanish not count or sumthing??

ManxTrialSpaz Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 (edited) I had Cheng Shin tube in a monty box off Tarty. Think it was the same size (as the monty spec), not sure, either way, it's in my bike now Edited May 5, 2007 by ManxTrialSpaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan6061 Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 I just use normal Halfords 20" tubes.Fit fine, just have to pump it more so it expands out in the big tyre.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si-man Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 It warms it up allowing the tube a little more give so when pumped up, it expands more.If you still dont get it then there is no hope for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T_PRO Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 I get my front inner tubes from halfords and my rear inner tubes from Supercycles. Never really had that much of a problem with my inner tubes, expect the front tends to punchure more than the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
