[#12564767]

I have learnt something today, not all Presta tubes have removable valves.

I have found Vittoria 29" x 1.50 - 2.00, however the presto valve cannot be removed. This is important as I wish to introduce some slime.

Can anyone recommend a low volume (1.50 - 2.00) 29" Presta inner tube with a removable valve.

Moon on a stick.....!!

I think Continental and specialised tubes have removable cores. (just checked, Specialised that I have both have removable cores)

Hi rockthreegozy

The Schwalbe does have a removable presto valve - wicked, however the stated size is 700c / 28", will this stretch to fit my 29' wheel.

Hi Nick

Thanks for that, but Continental do not produce a low volume tube.

Continental Cross 28 tube will work.
28/700c/29" are all the same!
This tube has a volume of about 1.75", so will be fine in a 2" tyre.

Many thanks for all your help, I have gone with the Continental Cross 28 as it is the closest match.

The encyclopaedic knowledge on STW is amazing.
