    I’ve got this set up tubeless, but will need a tube or two to carry just in case.

    Can I risk stretching 26 x up to 2.5 tube or do I need to hunt out specialist + size tubes? Do such things even exist?

    Now in its natural habitat…

    Have been off the bike injured for 8 weeks so it was just a gentle pootle today, but it did feel like the smaller + tyres offer more grip and roll just as well as the ‘standard’ 650b that they replaced.

    Has no-one got an answer to the + sized inner tube question?

    the fat bike crowd use dh inner tubes, so i imagine you’d be alright with something similar.

    Same position as you, tubeless but carrying a 2.5in tube and hoping it’ll fit if needed 🙂 I have worms with me anyway so they’re first option, tubes is a last resort.

    I’m still trying to settle on pressures, I’ve let them down a bit now they’re on the Flows instead of Arch and they are feeling better.
