Well, it makes a change from what tyres!

Seriously, I need to buy some more for Xc and trail centre style riding. Any recommendations?

thanks

Schwalbe – 18 bikes if your local or merlin.

It’s the only components of my bikes that I feel happy to scrimp on. Unless we’re talking about DH tubes, I’ve never noticed any difference in the performance of my inner tubes, regardless of whether they’re £6 branded jobs or whether I get them from Tescos for £2.49 each.

I always use conti ones because I like the yellow caps!

I use Schwalbe xx lightweight ones on my Anthem to keep the weight down as far as possible, anything else has the cheapest ones in the shop.

None

Tescos +1

While we’re on the subject, does it matter how patched they are? Some of mine will soon be more patch than tube

I usually buy a job lot of 10 on ebay, worked out to £2 a pop, think the last lot are kenda.

None, preferrably. Alternatively, whichever tubes I’ve plucked from the trailside, taken home and patched.
